Opinion

HOLLENHORST, Acting P. J.

After Andria M. Rocha (wife) filed an order to show cause regarding an increase in child support payments from her former spouse, Alexandre A. Rocha (husband), the court ordered an increase and included as income that portion of husband’s student loan for law school above the cost of books and tuition. Husband appeals persuasively arguing that the student loan retains its loan status irrespective of the fact that the proceeds were in excess of the costs of books and tuition. Thus, we reverse.
