18. HOW DOES THE COURT DETERMINE THE "TOTAL NEEDS"
OF THE CHILD?
The total needs of the child will be presumed to be the
Basic Child Support Obligation set out
on the child support schedules available at the clerk's office.It is
impossible to set out these figures here, but they cover the expected needs of
one or more children whose parents earn up to $12,000 per month combined
income.In general, the amount of the Basic Child Support Obligation is directly
determined by the combined incomes of both parents.The higher the total income,
the higher the obligation.
