Is a father entitled to credit for his son's dance classes and costumes since the date of the consent order?
New Brunswick, Canada
The following excerpt is from T.C. v J.W., 2022 NBQB 53 (CanLII):
In the July 17, 2020 consent order, the parties had agreed that special expenses were payable on an interim basis, including the dancing classes. However, if no agreement could be reached on a final basis, the determination of allowable special expenses would be retroactive to the date of separation. Consequently, the father is entitled to a credit for the dance classes and costumes he paid since separation. It can be deducted from the arrears owing as retroactive child support payable pursuant to my oral decision of November 23, 2021. __________________________________________________ 7 MacDonald v.
