Petersen v. Van Overbeke

[¶ 1] Paul J. Van Overbeke appeals from a judgment of the District Court (Belfast, Worth, J. ) modifying his child support obligation to Katrina I. Petersen regarding their minor child. Van Overbeke argues that neither party requested that the court modify child support and that the court erred both by addressing the issue and in its calculations.
