Is Carmichael v.Carmichael a case where the recipient has been ordered to pay specific expenses?
Canada (Federal), Canada
The following excerpt is from Sears v. The Queen, 2004 TCC 751 (CanLII):
Carmichael is one of the few cases that I am aware of that decided that a recipient has discretion where the support obligation requires the payment of specific expenses. Mogan J. referred to the decision of Bowman A.C.J. in Hak v. The Queen, 99 D.T.C. 36 (T.C.C.) but the facts in Hak were somewhat different.
