How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that the court may take into account the record of a party’s earnings, his or her work history and other factors in determining a person’s earning capacity
• concluding that husband’s significant drop in salary shortly before trial was suspicious, given that he was the sole shareholder of the company and his employees suffered no corresponding drop in their salary
• “No doubt reducing the duration of spousal support will perpetuate some disparity between husband’s and wife’s incomes. However, that alone is not reason to continue spousal support indefinitely.”
