Florcita Polo Wins First‑Instance Ruling to Increase Child Support

A court decision that raises the expected monthly payment could change who covers the children’s costs and invite appeals or enforcement actions.

Overview

  • Late September courts issued a first‑instance ruling in favor of Florcita Polo seeking higher child support for her two children.
  • Polo’s legal team asked to raise monthly payments from S/4,000 to S/10,000 for both children, saying school, extracurricular and caregiving costs have grown.
  • Her lawyers also reported alleged arrears that they will pursue in the case, including a reported S/6,000 plus an additional S/14,000 for 2024–2025.
  • Néstor Villanueva has publicly denied the accusations, asked for a rectification of claims that he ‘profits from’ the children, and said he has had limited contact with them for years.
  • The decision is first instance and may be appealed or modified, so enforcement, further hearings on access and possible reputational claims remain the next steps.
