Harris v. Porter (Mississippi 2016)
A child’s decision to attend college may be a material change in circumstances that warrant modifying child support. By statute, additional expenses can be added to a support amount, such as college tuition. The father in this case claimed the obligation to pay for half his child’s college expenses would seriously affect his lifestyle; however, the court reviewed his documents and found he had the ability to assist.
