On appeal from the Division of Administrative Hearings.
Lawrence P. Stevenson, Administrative Law Judge.
January 10, 2019
PER CURIAM.
Tanya Cairns appeals a final order denying the Department
of Revenue’s proposed order to modify an administrative child
support order. She contends the administrative law judge
incorrectly calculated the father’s child support obligation and
effectively modified the parents’ time-sharing arrangement by
finding that the father had visitation with the child eighty
percent of the time. Cairns’ arguments appear to be based on a
misreading of the child support guidelines worksheet. In
calculating the child support obligation, the judge multiplied the
father’s basic support obligation by eighty percent, which
represents the percentage of the other parent’s overnight stays
with the child. See § 61.30(11)(b)3., Fla. Stat. The judge did not
find that the father had visitation eighty percent of the time. Nor
did the order modify, in any way, the existing time-sharing plan.
Because the judge’s findings are supported by competent,
substantial evidence, we affirm.
ROWE, RAY, and OSTERHAUS, JJ., concur.
