The court has a limited ability to make orders for child support in amounts different than what would normally be required by the Child Support Guidelines tables. In general, unless one of the exceptions built into the Guidelines applies, the court must conclude either that the parents or guardians are making significant direct payments to the children's expenses or that an order under the tables would be unfair before the court will do anything other than make an order following the Guidelines tables. | The court has a limited ability to make orders for child support in amounts different than what would normally be required by the Child Support Guidelines tables.
