A family law trial addressing child support, retroactive support, section 7 expenses, and equalization following marital separation.
The respondent failed to provide financial disclosure, including tax returns or financial statements, requiring the court to rely largely on testimonial evidence.
The court imputed income to the respondent based on historical earnings and capacity to earn through employment and landscaping business activities.
Orders were made for retroactive and ongoing child support, contribution toward section 7 expenses, and an equalization payment, largely satisfied from the respondent’s share of matrimonial home proceeds.
