court on June 13, 1996. The Superior Court incorporated the
terms of the settlement in a judgment of dissolution of marriage
dated July 25, 1997 (the dissolution judgment). In the
dissolution judgment, the Superior Court ordered petitioner to
pay Carmen “family support” of $4,030 per month. The dissolution
judgment provided that petitioner and Carmen would have joint
legal and physical custody of the two children and that Carmen
would be the primary caretaker.
In an order dated March 25, 1999 (the 1999 order), relating
to a hearing held on January 14, 1999, the Superior Court (1)
declared that “Timeshare for the children of the parties is 42%
to Father”, (2) adjusted petitioner’s family support obligation
to Carmen to $3,832 per month effective August 1, 1998, and (3)
found that, as of December 31, 1998, petitioner was $21,478 in
arrears on his support obligation, which amount included $2,196
of interest.
Petitioner paid Carmen $49,808 during 1999 pursuant to the
1999 order. That figure represents 12 monthly payments of $3,832
($45,984) and an additional $3,824 attributable to petitioner’s
support arrearage.
Petitioner paid two court-appointed psychologists, Drs.
Caffaro and Murphy, $4,188 on Carmen’s behalf during 1999.
Petitioner also paid Dr. Caffaro $114 on October 29, 1999.
