Alimony fines will be reduced

The State Duma supported the idea reduce penalties and penalties for late payment of alimony.

The approach to each alimony will be individual - the court will decide on possible penalties, based on marital status and the actual material support of the person.

The size of the penalty in general for all categories of alimony will be reduced. The relevant law by deputies adopted. Changes will be made to the Family Code of the Russian Federation.

The main criterion that will be considered by the court when appointing a penalty is - proportionality to the consequences of breach of payment obligations.

In other words, if the father owes child support to a child who grows up in a low-income family, the penalty may be higher than if his child grows up in a wealthy family.

By adopting the law, parliamentarians pointed to the clear separation of the current situation with alimony from reality. Often, the alimony person has a debt of a million rubles, while penalties in this amount amount to 30%, while the debtor has another family, and children grow up in it too.

In such cases, the penalty is planned to be reduced to a minimum.
