Notice of Cancellation
California has adopted a child support guideline in compliance with federal law, 42 U.S.C. section 667(a). California Family Code, section 4054(a) provides that the “Judicial Council shall periodically review the statewide uniform guideline to recommend to the Legislature appropriate revisions.” California’s guideline is found at Family Code sections 4050–4076.
Federal law also requires that child support guidelines be reviewed by the state at least once every four years to “ensure that their application results in the determination of appropriate child support award amounts.” The federal and state requirements specify that the review must include an analysis of case data. One of the major reasons for conducting the case file review is to determine whether the guideline is being applied and the frequency of, and reasons for, deviation from the guideline.
For this portion of the study, the JCC seeks the services of attorneys currently licensed to practice law in California to form a team of case file reviewers with experience in family law and child support.
