The applicant brought a motion to change a final order, seeking to terminate or reduce his spousal support obligations retroactive to his retirement date, and to remove the respondent from his life insurance policies.
The court found a material change in circumstances due to the applicant's retirement and reduced income, but noted the respondent's continuing financial need.
The court ordered a reduction in ongoing spousal support but declined to make it retroactive.
The court also permitted the applicant to remove the respondent from his life insurance policies, provided he confirms she is the irrevocable beneficiary of his survivor pension.
