6 Page: 2 4-SM-3 The court has determined that child support shall be paid by Eric Ross to Galina Ross in the amount of $ monthly ($ for basic payment plus $46.97 for additional expenses). The non-custodial parties' pro rata share of the basic child support obligation is neither unjust nor inappropriate. Health insurance availability for each party is as follows: GR ER Galina Ross: Health insurance is available through an employer or organization; Eric Ross: Health insurance is not offered through an employer or organization. Health insurance coverage is to be provided as follows: Galina Ross is directed to continue health insurance coverage under the current available plan for the child, with contribution or premium of $82.40 monthly paid by Galina Ross. This plan contains the following benefits: Dental. The allocation between the parties of costs of medical premiums or contributions is prorated in the same proportion as each party's income is to the combined income. The Petitioner has the ability to earn $38, annually. The Respondent had no stated income from wages as of the filing of the petition or the date of the hearing. The Respondent has the ability to earn $ gross weekly based upon year to date income of $16, for 2008 earnings from Citigroup Global Markets based upon the testimony of the representative of the Support Collection Unit as of April 23, 2008 which covered seventeen (17) weeks. The Respondent is not working but the Court finds this reflects his ability to earn. The Respondent did submit a job search which reflected he contacted J P Morgan for a personal banker position in Nyack,, Montvale, Queens, Bronx, and Manhattan, and for an enterprising vault messaging engineer, as well as a database engineer/architect Lead oracle, Lead SQL Server; Chase; Veris Marshwinds-business analyst; VishalMehta, lmamopartners.com,;a recruiter; Search EDP Inc.;,a recruiting agency; Algomod Techologies Corporation, an IT recruiter; Software Guidance, a recruiter; trineaspects.com; i tmmi.com, svsservices.com;; Blue Wolf; Jack Schwartz; Alex Oak Ridge Staffing; Robert Half Staffing; pinnacleus; Noly Vega; Bernadette McHugh; Eliza Gonzalez; American Cybersystems; Interactive Brokers; Gain Capital;KForce Technology Staffing; Infotechnologies; Laura Santoro; ; David Wojdy Edgewater Group; and a few others. The Respondent lost his employment in early He received unemployment benefits during The Respondent testified he has a doctoral degree in computer engineering from the Moscow Scientific Research facility. The Petitioner disputed he had a degree. The Respondent did not mention that he had an MBA. In Exhibit Cthere are communications between Mr. Ross and Bernadette McHugh and which questio^elpar^mne date of receipt of his MBA because he listed one year on a resume and another year in the . He was also questioned about a claim of ten years when the resume listed 1990 to 1997 for his years at Enhance. In a letter he stated he had ten years experience as VP at Enhance but his clarification listed his VP from 1992 to 1997 for five years. The Respondent's credibility is at issue in this case. The Respondent's own,submitted documents reflect that he has not been accurate and precise regarding his background awexperience. The tenor of that exchange indicates a concern from an employment recruiter regarding the

7 Page: 3 4-SM-3 Respondent's veracity. The Court finds the Respondent's job search was harmed by his own lack of veracity and precision. The Respondent has assets including real estate, bank accounts, and other assets including stocks, bonds, or an IRA account. His financial affidavit, dated July 20,2009, listed monthly expenses of $8, monthly including his house and condo expenses.
