Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District / Jan 8, 2019
Paula J. Severn vs. William t. Severn
William Severn appealed the denial of his motion to modify a dissolution judgment regarding child support and spousal maintenance. The appellate court affirmed the motion court's decision to deny modification of spousal maintenance and the award of attorney's fees to Paula Severn. However, the court reversed the child support calculation, holding that employer contributions to a deferred compensation plan should not be included in William's gross income, and remanded for recalculation of child support.
