14-39-B IN RE: CLERK OF COURT - PROCEDURES FOR PROCESSING CHILD SUPPORT PAYMENTS - ORDERED 11/19/2014 BY JOHN M. HARRIS
The judges of Brevard County have decided that it is in the best interest of the litigants and constituents of the Family/Domestic Relations Division that the court implements a uniform method for applying payments and requiring their orderly processing by the Clerk and uniform accounting of the same.
NOW THEREFORE I, John M. Harris, pursuant to the authority vested in me as Chief Judge of the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit under Rule 2.050, Fla.R.Jud.Admin, cause the same to take effect and IT IS ORDERED:
- For the purpose of ensuring that the Clerk’s administrative fees under Section 61.181, Florida Statutes are correctly deducted from the child support payments made directly to the Clerk, the Clerk shall determine the weekly rate of child support and/or arrearage amounts and shall implement this rate on a weekly basis, regardless support was calculated by the court on a bi-weekly, semi-monthly, monthly or other term in the support order.
- The system shall not affect how the employer/respondent pays child support under the terms of the support order.
- The Clerk shall be responsible for accounting for a 53-week year, when necessary.
- This Administrative Order shall not alter or otherwise amend any portion of an order for support except otherwise provided herein.
DONE AND ORDERED this 19th day of November 2014.
