Lascaibar v. Lascaibar

Nivia Lascaibar (the “Mother”) appeals from an order of the trial court denying her Exceptions to the General Magistrate’s Report and Recommendations, which determined that she was not entitled to the accrual of interest on child support payments in arrears owed by Albert Lascaibar (the “Father”).
