HON. MICHAEL A. MAGGIO, JUDGE
JASON S. HEARST
APPELLEES,
REVERSED AND REMANDED.
ANNABELLE CLINTON IMBER, Associate Justice
The Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) appeals from an order modifying
child support payable to Angela Hearst, the custodial parent of Appellee Jason Hearst’s two
minor children. Specifically, OCSE challenges the Faulkner County Circuit Court’s ruling
that Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits paid directly to Appellee’s two children as a
result of his disability should not be considered income under Administrative Order No. 10.
The Arkansas Court of Appeals certified the case to this court as an issue of first impression,
a significant issue needing clarification or development of the law, and an issue of substantial
public interest. Thus, our jurisdiction is pursuant to Ark. R. Sup. Ct. 1-2(b)(1),(4),(5) (2009).
