Arkansas Department of Human Services Child Support Enforcement Unit v. Forte
Court of Appeals of Arkansas
1Opinion of the Court
John B. Robbins, Judge.
This appeal is from a judgment of the Little River County Chancery Court which awarded current and back child support in a paternity action. Appellant, the Department of Human Services, contends the chancellor erred in considering appellee’s other illegitimate children in setting support for the child involved in this action and that the chancellor’s award of past child support is deficient. For the reasons hereinafter explained, we affirm the award of back child support but reverse the chancellor’s award of current support and remand for further consideration.
