Family — child support — imputed income

Andrew J. Kanehl (“Andrew”) appeals from the circuit court order establishing child support for his daughter, M.K. Andrew contends that the circuit court erroneously exercised its discretion by: (1) not applying Andrew’s reduced income and reduced child support obligation retroactively; (2) imputing income to Andrew without a finding of shirking; (3) not factoring the deprecation of Andrew’s commercial real estate into its child support calculation; and (4) not deducting the principal payments Andrew made on the commercial real estate from the child support calculation. We conclude that the circuit court properly exercised its discretion. Accordingly, we affirm. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
