Karine Bailey vs. Michael Bailey

These parties were divorced in September 1995, and their Marital Dissolution Agreement was incorporated in the decree of divorce. They were parents of two children, and the court approved the agreement for shared physical custody of the children whereby each parent had custody of both children fifty percent of the time. The MDA provided, "[T]he parties have agreed to deviate from the child support award guidelines due to the shared physical custody of the children." Husband paid Wife $500 per month, which was not in accordance with the guidelines. In June 1999, Husband filed a motion to terminate his child support obligation because of a significant increase in Wife's income. The trial court denied the application, and Husband appeals. We vacate and remand for further proceedings.
