Can an interim support order retroactive to the date of the application was made?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from T.I.M. v. T.L.M., 2003 BCSC 1918 (CanLII):
The case of Halpin v. Halpin, [1992] B.C.J. No. 609 (B.C.S.C.), was brought to my attention for the proposition that I have the ability to order an interim support order retroactive to the date the application was first made. While I agree with this, there is no compelling reason why I should do so in this matter.
