What would have been the child support contemplated in the consent order?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Peake v. Trotter, 2010 BCSC 1204 (CanLII):
The amount of child support provided in the consent order would have taken into consideration a number of factors including, I infer, that the consent order contemplated a shared custody regime and that the incomes of the parties might vary from year to year. The evidence does not satisfy me that the child support contemplated in the consent order should be varied retroactively. In reaching this conclusion, I have considered the approach suggested in D.B.S. v. S.R.G., 2006 SCC 37, as summarized by Kelleher J. in Morgan v. Morgan.
