What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New Mexico
My daughter's father and I are no longer together. He's been paying child support for her this whole year. We both agreed on an amount and that's what he's been paying. (no courts involved) Well he is getting custody of his 12yr old son (different mother) and wants to file for child support for my duaghter. I think he thinks he will pay less than what he is paying now. Recently a judge raised child support on his son and said that the first child automacially gets 25% of his gross income. My question is, is there a percentage for the second child? How is it determined? I'm not trying to burn anyone, just want to be able to support my daughter. Would this be a bad thing? My daughter is just as important as his son and I just want to be treated fairly...Please help meWhat is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
