Marriage of Street
Appellant Ramona Street appeals from the order modifying the amount of monthly spousal support and child support respondent Jeffery Street was required to pay her under the judgment on the issues of physical custody, visitation and support. Before this court, appellant asserts the lower court erred when it reduced her monthly spousal support without considering the Family Code section 4320 factors. With respect to child support, appellant complains the courts modification of the support order did not accurately reflect respondents exercise of visitation with his children. Finally, both appellant and respondent raise other matters on appeal concerning tax issues, visitation and attorneys fees. As we shall explain, we do not reach the merits of these other matters because they relate to issues that were not decided in the lower court, and were not part of the judgment on appeal. Furthermore, the tax issues and visitation matters raised by respondent have not been properly preserved for appeal. As for the child and spousal support issues subject to this appeal, as Court shall explain more fully below, the evidence in the record before this court does not support the courts order and thus the order does not reflect the proper exercise of the lower courts discretion. Consequently Court reverse and remand for further proceedings.
