You need to carefully read the two child support order that you are obligated to pay under in that the answer to your question will be there. Potentially the court did not take into account the other child support order that you are obligated upon in making the rulings as to each order. If such is the case, then possibly you should consult with a family law attorney about filing petitions to modify the child support orders downward if such is the situation.
