  1. It’s a “cap” for most people, because they aren’t going to spend the money to rebut the presumption that the guidelines are in a child’s best interest. It’s usually not worth paying someone tens of thousands of dollars in attorney fees to fight it when you won’t get that much back in extra support.
  2. We aren't talking about different things. That is a reason to go about the guideline maximum for net resources. You'd still apply the percentage to whatever the net resources are above the cap. So in this case, instead of $9,200 a month, you could say his net resources are and then apply the percentage to that amount of net resources. As long as the amount of child support is below 50% of his net resources (whatever the court determines them to be), and as long as the court finds going past the guidelines is in the child's best interest, you can blow the "guideline max" child support out of the water. But what do I know, I just do this for a living. I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn last night.
  3. It's a guideline, not a cap, and you can go above the guideline if you meet the requirements. Here's the law in question: The last exception is big enough to drive a Cybertuck through.
  4. Cool. I’ll tell my clients that I’ve gotten court orders over the guideline max that they should thank their lucky stars the other attorney and judge didn’t know that.
  5. It’s the circle of life.
  6. I mean, that's funny and all, but I could get Grimes considerably more than $2,760/mo in child support, even in Texas. Especially here in Travis County. Judges have discretion to, and will, go over the guidelines if you prove the case correctly. And there's a lot of high earners in Travis County who pay more than guideline support because of that.
  7. Missed it by ~7700 spots. Did the calculator as to how much I'd have to donate to get above that level. It was more than my downpayment on my first house.
  8. Pelican club is definitely a sneaky good recommendation.
  9. Got mine yesterday (saying sorry not sorry thanks for all the money), and a phone call this morning saying the same thing.
  10. Fuck it I’m in. I’ll just bill a few more hours.
  11. Damn. I never had a chance. On yo’ feet!
  12. Sometimes a doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion!
  13. When he was interviewed about Worthy after the game, I thought he gave a lot more info (e.g., no break, he'll be fine for our next game) on purpose because he knew CFP committee was listening and he didn't want them to knock us for losing a key piece of our offense.
  14. Can I get this on a t-shirt?
  15. She's out of your league. That's what it means.
  16. This one is so bad that it may boomerang all the way around to being awesome. Actually, it's not awesome. It's allsome.
  17. Dropped us out of the top 25 all together because our fans booed the Commissioner; and he needs you to know that decorum matters.
  18. Yeah. And then there is this: https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/page/playoffpredictions120223/2023-college-football-playoff-picks-conference-championships Every single ESPN “expert” (15 of them) says Texas is in. They are split 8/7 on FSU over Alabama.
  19. Bert Auburn - 7, OkState - 14 We are actually scoring TDs in the red zone this game so OkState may eek this one out.
  20. Bert Auburn - 6, OkState - 14 I have faith he can pull it out.
  21. Bert Auburn - 2, OkState - 0
  22. Bert Auburn - 1, OkState - 0
