In re the Marriage of Mannix

Court of Appeals of Oregon

1DissentEdmonds, J.

Under the majority’s decision in this child support case, father is required to pay compound interest on unpaid support judgments. What started out as two judgments in one county has now turned into five judgments in two counties, all of which reflect two principal obligations and the interest that has accrued on them. It is conceivable that *45mother could seek writs of execution on all five judgments and recover interest on all five judgments. See ORS 23.030 et seq (enforcement of judgments). That result is contrary to Oregon law for several reasons as explained below and, therefore, I dissent.
