1Opinion of the Court

KAROHL, Judge.

Movant Linda J. “Zede” Goss (Goss), formerly Porter, appeals order denying her request for contempt against Guy Robert Porter (Porter), her ex-husband and the father of their son. We find there was evidence to support the trial court’s findings of fact that Porter’s failure to pay child support, medical reimbursement and maintenance in the amounts required by a February 9, 1993, pendente lite (PDL) order and a March 18, 1994, decree of dissolution, “does not constitute a willful, knowing, intentional and contumacious failure to comply with [the circuit court’s] Order.” We affirm.
