It really isn't that easy. You have to do a worksheet, they need your income statements, the opposing party's income statement (and I suspect that will need to be subpoenaed), cost of child care, education, etc. This is usually done first, then a court date is set, and a judge makes a ruling.
I was on the receiving end of all of this and got slapped with a huge child support payment. It was a serious PITA. It took quite a lot to get the garnishments to stop, even after I won custody.

went through that, that's truly like trying to get an act of Congress, as to the amount, can't speak for La but in many states it just comes off a table based on the income of the parents, even if one parent isn't working, what they've demonstrated in the past that they can earn can be used, because mine was such a deadbeat I had to hire an "expert" to determine what she should be able to make if she'd get off her lazy arse and work
