The moving party (respondent in the main action) brought a motion to set aside a final order for spousal support obtained in his absence at an uncontested trial.
He argued he was unaware of the proceedings and disputed the trial judge's findings regarding the length of cohabitation and his imputed income.
The court dismissed the motion, finding that the moving party deliberately evaded service and ignored the court process to avoid paying spousal support.
The court also found no arguable case on the merits, as the evidence supported a 21-year spousal relationship and the imputed income was appropriate based on his past earnings.
