Starkey v. Starkey

HILL, Justice.

[¶ 1] In 1998, Jeffrey Starkey (Father) began paying an extra $50.00 per month on his child support obligation in an effort to pay off the obligation in advance. Father stopped making payments in September 2005, when he believed he had a “credit” of approximately $4500.00 in child support. At a hearing on a petition to modify child support filed in January 2006, the district court had an opportunity to consider whether or not Father should receive credit for the over-payments. Ultimately, the court ruled that Father was not entitled to credit. This appeal followed, and we affirm.
