Decided December 17, 2003.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Brian L. Kerstetter, for Robert M. Ely.

Brian W. Ulmer, for Donna K. Christianson.

Before CAPPY, C.J., CASTILLE, NIGRO, NEWMAN, SAYLOR, EAKIN, LAMB, JJ.

OPINION

Justice NEWMAN.

In this case, we determine the effective date for an award of child support, where a mother filed two Complaints, eleven years apart, against a father. Our answer will dictate the amount of arrearages that the father owes for support of his child. For the reasons that follow, we affirm the Order of the Superior Court, which held that the father's support obligation arises on the earlier date.
