Maureen Foley (she has resumed her maiden name) and Richard Turrow were divorced in 2006 in Idaho, following ten years of marriage. At the time of the divorce, the couple had two children, Colin and Tyler, ages 4 and 6, and the court awarded joint legal custody to both parties and physical custody of both children to Maureen. Richard was ordered to pay $450/month in child support for both children. At the time of this order, Richard made approximately $25,000 a year, and Maureen made $14,000 a year. Maureen now makes $18,000 a year and just isn’t cutting it with such a low amount of child support for two growing children who eat a lot more food than they did when they were only 4 and 6. Also, Richard now makes $45,000 a year thanks to a major promotion a few years ago.
Richard’s insurance provides medical insurance for the children, but nothing was put into the divorce decree that he must continue this insurance coverage, so you should be sure to request in the proper section of this form that Richard provide medical insurance as a continuing obligation. Also, Tyler needs psychotherapy, and after insurance, this will cost a total of $15,000. Maureen cannot afford to pay half of this amount as per the divorce decree that each ex-spouse pays half the health care costs not paid by insurance, so she wants to change this amount to Richard paying 75% of the cost and Maureen pay 25%.
