Can a judge order a non custodial parent to pay an additional amount of child support because he lives over 300 miles away and cannot visit the child each week?
If the judge orders it, then you have no choice. Unfortunately the judge can make all sorts of crazy judgements. If you disagree, file an appeal. For now, do what the judge says so you don't hurt your chances of a successful appeal. *The judge might issue such an order, but it would not hold up if contested. Child support and visitation are two separate issues. Child support is based on the physical needs of a child and has nothing to do with the involvement or lack of same by the non custodial obligated parent.
