Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The trial court erred in finding that there was a substantial change of a continuing nature with regard to the circumstances of the parties as to make the terms of the court's original child support order of $650.00 per month unreasonable because said finding was not based on substantial evidence in that the original child support order was not based on the Missouri Child Support Guidelines at the time it was entered in 2004 and therefore the presumption that a substantial and continuing change in circumstances exist if the presumed child support amount is different from the current amount by twenty percent or more is not applicable to the case at bar; there was no evidence that the current needs of the minor child are substantially different now than at the time the original child support order was entered in 2004; and there was evidence that Mother voluntarily reduced her income since the entry of the original dissolution decree.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“[U]nder Rule 88.01 the trial court in all cases involving the award of child support is required to determine and find for the record the presumed correct child support amount calculated pursuant to [Form 14]. The determination and finding of the amount can be done by either accepting for the record a Form 14 amount calculated by a party, or in the event it “rejects” the Form 14 amounts of the parties as being incorrect, doing its own Form 14 calculation.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage“If the application of the child support guidelines and criteria set forth in section 452.340 and applicable supreme court rules to the financial circumstances of the parties would result in a change of child support from the existing amount by twenty percent or more, a prima facie showing has been made of a change of circumstances so substantial and continuing as to make the present terms unreasonable, if the existing amount was based upon the presumed amount pursuant to the child support guidelines.”
