This order is based on the attached documents (specify):

The parties agree that:

a.The parent ordered to pay support has read and understands the Advisement and Waiver of Rights for Stipulation on page 5 of this form. The parent ordered to pay support gives up these rights and freely agrees that a judgment may be entered in accordance with this stipulation.

b. The amount of support payable by the party ordered to pay support as calculated under the guideline is: $

 

 

We agree to guideline support.

 

 

The guideline amount should be rebutted because of the following:

 

 

(1)

 

 

We have been fully informed of the guideline amount of support; we agree voluntarily to child support in the

 

 

 

 

amount of $

per month; the agreement is in the best interest of the children; the needs of the children

will be met adequately by the agreed amount; the children are not receiving public assistance; no application for public assistance is pending; and application of the guideline would be unjust and inappropriate in this case. We understand that if the order is below the guideline, no change of circumstances need be shown for the court to raise this order to the guideline amount. If the order is above the guideline, a change of circumstances will be required to modify this order.

(2) Other rebutting factors (specify):

c. The computer printout attached shows the parents’ incomes and percentage of time each parent spends with the children. The printout, which shows the calculation of child support payable, will become the court’s findings.

NOTICE: Any party required to pay child support must pay interest on overdue amounts at the legal rate, which is currently 10 percent per year.
