Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois
Child support laws
If child support is being paid by a direct withdrawl from paychecks, at a set income each month, and the obligator sells some investment property, thus, bringing in extra income, is the obligator suppose to inform the court and pay extra in child support?
Thank you

Re: Child support laws
In a perfect world the person paying the child support would voluntarily do that, but if you feel that this sale of assets would be considered income per the child support laws then odds are you will need to petition the court.
