What is the range of child support payable to the claimant in a shared parenting arrangement?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from S.L.D. v. W.A.D., 2016 BCSC 616 (CanLII):
I have not adjusted the child support to reflect the income I have attributed to the claimant; but, on the basis of the factors set out in s. 9 of the Guidelines and Contino v. Leonelli-Contino, 2005 SCC 63, I conclude that the respondent’s vastly superior financial resources make it inappropriate to order other than the basic Guidelines amount payable despite the shared parenting arrangement.
