Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District / Nov 21, 2023
Matthew W. Hagen, Respondent, vs. Jamie L. Harris, Appellant.
Mother appealed the circuit court's judgment regarding paternity, custody, and child support. She contended the circuit court erred in its Form 14 child support calculation and in denying her motion to reopen the case to consider new evidence of Father's alcohol-related charges. The appellate court reversed the child support award, finding an error in the Line 11 custody credit calculation, and remanded for recalculation. However, the court affirmed the denial of the motion to reopen, concluding the circuit court did not abuse its discretion.
