Legal Question in Family Law in Kentucky

Re: Any Right to Financial Privacy in a Divorce?

What if anything is included regarding remarriage in your original Order or Agreement? If nothing is specified,

KRS 403.212, addressing how to calculate child support, implies

that your income, not yours & new spouse's, is the key.

2 segments of the definitions in this section are reproduced below:

"(2) For the purposes of the child support guidelines:

(a) "Income" means actual gross income of the parent if employed to full capacity

or potential income if unemployed or underemployed.

(b) "Gross income" includes income from any source, except as excluded in this

subsection, and includes but is not limited to income from salaries, wages,

retirement and pension funds, commissions, bonuses, dividends, severance

pay, pensions, interest, trust income, annuities, capital gains, Social Security

benefits, workers' compensation benefits, unemployment insurance benefits,

disability insurance benefits, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), gifts,

prizes, and alimony or maintenance received. Specifically excluded are

benefits received from means-tested public assistance programs, including but

not limited to public assistance as defined under Title IV-A of the Federal

Social Security Act, and food stamps."
