Re: Ex wants support amended

He can ask for whatever he wants, but voluntary underemployment is no reason for his child support to be reduced. Unfortunately, the court has no jurisdiction to tell him to sell off assets, unless the arrears are converted to a lump sum judgment. That can only be done after the child turns 18, and finishes high school.
