) Whenever the Superior Court orders a wage assignment under this Title, the maximum amount it may order assigned for spousal and child support taken together is sixty percent (60%) of the obligor’s disposable earnings. However, if the obligor is also supporting either a spouse or dependent child who is not the subject of a support order, the Superior Court may order that up to fifty percent (50%) of the obligor’s disposable earnings be assigned.
