Following the breakdown of a marriage with three children, the court addressed child support, spousal support, and equalization of property.
The court set the respondent’s income at $45,000 for child support purposes and ordered guideline child support of $858 per month.
The court imputed income of $25,000 to the applicant and determined that spousal support was not warranted under the Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines.
The principal property dispute concerned the value of the respondent’s insurance Book of Business, with the court accepting the respondent’s expert valuation methodology distinguishing between a brokerage and a producer’s client list.
The court fixed the value of the Book of Business at $107,500 and ordered a modest equalization payment and reimbursement of certain household expenses.
