Child support payment reduced due to lack of stated reason for lower amount in agreement.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe court dismissed the claim because the child support agreement and the custody order failed to specify why the support amount was lower than the current legal standard. Consequently, the authority was legally barred from paying more than the reduced sum established in the custody order. The decision rests on the statutory requirement that any reduction in child support must be explicitly justified in the relevant legal documents.

Lasten elatuksesta tehdyssä sopimuksessa ja kihlakunnanoikeuden asumuserotuomiossa ei mainittu syytä miksi lapsille suoritettavaksi määrätty elatusapu oli vahvistettu voimassa olevaa elatustuen määrää pienemmäksi. Tämän vuoksi elatustukea ei voitu suorittaa asumuserotuomiossa vahvistettua määrää enempää.
