I've been searching and searching but can't seem to find the answer to this or any precedents.
Here is the situation:
Shared custody (50/50)
No Spousal support
Both parties make over $150k. Each parties salary/bonus is entered into the tables and the amounts are subtracted from each other to arrive at the support number.
Per that calculation, one spouse makes $260k the other makes $388k
My question is, at income levels this high and under a shared custody arrangement, why would the higher income spouse pay the "lower" income spouse? Is there any precedent to say that if both are over $150k the Child Support argument - and especially the table amounts - are inapplicable?
