WHEN PARENTS HAVE EQUAL PARENTING TIME, THE PARENT WITH THE HIGHER INCOME SHOULD BE DEEMED THE NONCUSTODIAL PARENT FOR CHILD SUPPORT PURPOSES.

The Second Department, reversing Family Court, determined that mother, who had a substantially higher income than father, should be deemed the noncustodial parent because mother and father had equal parenting time. Therefore, father was entitled to child support from mother:

The “custodial parent” within the meaning of the Child Support Standards Act is the parent who has physical custody of the child for the majority of the time … . Where neither parent has the child for a majority of the time, the parent with the higher income, who bears the greater share of the child support obligation, should be deemed the noncustodial parent for the purposes of child support … . Matter of Conway v Gartmond, 2016 NY Slip Op 07319, 2nd Dept 11-9-16
