Out of Court Agreement

The Mississippi Court of Appeals decided Deckard v. Deckard yesterday which is located here.  The issue in the case was contempt for nonpayment of child support.  Mr. Deckard said the parties had an out of court agreement.  Ms. Deckard denied it.  Ultimately, with no proof, the court held him in contempt for over $100,000.00.  Any modification in Mississippi should be done by court order, otherwise this can happen.
