How courts have described this case

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

  • requiring that spousal support and property distribution—“both jointly and severally—satisfy basic concepts of fairness” in view of their different but interrelated purposes
  • reasoning that “the valuation methodology chosen for equitable distribution should not alter the alimony award” because statutory factors—not the valuation methodology—govern alimony
  • emphasizing because alimony and equitable distribution serve two separate purposes, it is not required that \a credit on one side of the ledger must perforce require a debit on the other side\
