1Opinion of the Court
KENNETH W. SHRUM, Judge.
David Ryan (“Father”) was adjudged to be in contempt of court for failing to pay child support arrearage of $1,048.80. The court used the arrearage determination made by the Missouri Division of Child Support Enforcement (“Division”) in an order dated November 30, 1994, to arrive at the arrearage amount. The court rejected the State’s claim that an arrearage of $18,598.80 was the figure that should have been used in deciding what amount Father had to pay to purge himself of the contempt judgment. The State of Missouri (“State”) appeals. This court affirms.
