County of San Diego v. S.S. CA4/1

INTRODUCTION

Father challenges a trial court order determining he owes child support arrears

based on orders issued in a child support action filed by the San Diego County

Department of Child Support Services (Department) (child support action). He contends:

(1) he does not owe arrears because the Department sent him a letter in 2008 closing the

child support action; (2) there were no subsequent orders reinitiating his child support

obligation; (3) he and mother entered into a marital settlement agreement in a separate

dissolution action setting his child support obligation to zero; (4) the trial court failed to

review his parenting timeshare and the Department's 2008 letter before reaching its

decision; and (5) the Department's accounting confused his child support obligation in the

child support action with his child support obligation in the dissolution action, burdening

him with double payments.

We conclude father has forfeited these contentions by failing to support them with

record citations and legal analysis. (People v. Stanley (1995) 10 Cal.4th 764, 793.) Even

if he had not forfeited these contentions, the record does not support them.…
