The appellant wife appealed a trial judge's spousal support order following a 19-year marriage.
The trial judge had ordered time-limited support with a review order and refused to make support retroactive.
The Court of Appeal allowed the appeal, finding the trial judge erred in imposing a review order, refusing retroactive support, and in determining the quantum and duration of support.
The Court increased the support amount and duration, applying the Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines as a cross-check, and set aside the review order.
