• holding that the circuit court’s refusal to award former spouse maintenance was not an abuse of discretion, despite the appearance of a heavy influence of two 504(a) factors on the court’s decision
• suggesting that, in marriage cases, a court does not have to articulate all the factors it considered in setting maintenance
• rejecting the petitioner’s contention that nonmarital funds lost their identity and should have been considered marital funds simply because they were deposited in the couple’s joint checking account which contained marital funds
• finding no abuse of discretion in failing to consider unreported cash income in determining net income when there was conflicting testimony as to whether it was ever received
• rejecting the petitioner’s contention that nonmarital funds lost their identity and should have been considered marital funds simply because they were deposited in the couple’s joint checking account which contained marital funds
• while the reviewing court might have decided differently, the court was unable to say that no reasonable person could have taken the view adopted by the trial court
