In a post-divorce child support dispute case in Fujian, the court ruled that the father must increase child support to 10000 yuan per month.

Case Summary

Plaintiff Wang (female) and defendant Chen (male) registered their marriage on 2019/10/10 and had a daughter, Chen Yi, on 2021/5/20. In 2023/12, the parties finalized their divorce at the Civil Affairs Bureau and signed a Divorce Agreement, stipulating that the minor daughter, Chen Yi, would be raised by Plaintiff Wang, while Defendant Chen would pay child support of 6000 yuan per month until the child turns 18. In 2024/6, Plaintiff Wang filed a lawsuit in court, stating that the child has reached school age and her actual needs for education and healthcare have significantly increased. Additionally, Defendant Chen's income has risen substantially since the divorce, with his monthly salary now exceeding 5 ten thousand yuan. The originally agreed child support of 6000 yuan per month is no longer sufficient to meet the child's actual needs. Plaintiff Wang requests that Defendant Chen increase the child support to 10000 yuan per month.

Key Dispute

1.Have the actual needs of children increased significantly?
2.Has the defendant's income increased significantly since the divorce?
3.Is the plaintiff's claim for increased child support reasonable?

Case Strategy

1.Secure core evidence including the divorce certificate, "Divorce Agreement," birth certificates of children, records of education and medical expenses for minors, proof of the defendant's income, and bank statements.
2.The child is now of school age, and the need for education and medical care has increased significantly. The monthly alimony of 6000 yuan originally agreed upon can no longer meet the child's actual living and educational needs.
3.Demonstrate that Defendant Chen's income has significantly increased since the divorce, with a monthly salary now exceeding 5 thousand yuan, indicating the ability to pay higher child support.
4.Based on the defendant's monthly income, Xiamen's cost of living, and the children's actual needs, we request that the defendant pay child support of 10000 yuan per month. This claim complies with the Civil Code and is reasonable.

Processing Result

The court ruled that Defendant Chen shall pay child support of 10000 yuan per month for the minor daughter, Chen Yiyi, starting from 7 of 2024, until she reaches the age of 18. The Defendant shall bear all litigation costs in this case.
