The Respondent also refers to Morgan v. Morgan, 2006 BCSC 1197. There, Mr. Justice Kelleher determined that the applicant’s delay in seeking increased support was not reasonable. There was no evidence that the applicant asked the respondent about his income or that she attempted to seek higher child support from him at an earlier date: para. 51.
