The appellant appealed an order changing her indefinite spousal support to a three-year step-down order.
She argued the motions judge erred by failing to consider pre-marriage cohabitation and by terminating an indefinite order.
The Divisional Court dismissed the appeal, finding the cohabitation issue was not properly raised before the motions judge and that the Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines permit the termination of indefinite support where the recipient has had an opportunity to become self-supporting.
The step-down order was upheld.
