The applicant wife sought to set aside a handwritten separation agreement, divide the respondent husband's pension, and obtain retroactive spousal support.
The respondent failed to file responding materials and was noted in default.
The court set aside the separation agreement due to lack of formal witnessing, lack of financial disclosure, and unconscionability.
The court ordered an immediate transfer of 50% of the respondent's pension and awarded indefinite compensatory spousal support of $3,700 per month, retroactive to the date the respondent was put on notice of the proceedings.
