4 Mom may ask for anything but child support is based on mathematical formula, it is what it is.

In a situation like this, it is important to make sure that the Court is aware of your other child support obligation. You will want to bring a copy of the Order from that case, along with proof of paying the support.

You need proof that there is another support order which you are paying. Given what you stand to lose, you may want to consult with an attorney who can review the Modification Petition, your Response (which may need to be Amended), proof of your current income and the other child support order. It may be that the amount she is requesting is not justified based on your income.

These cases are very fact specific. You need to make sure that you have proof of your income and of the other child support order.
