Following a five‑year marriage with no children of the relationship, the parties sought divorce, mutual restraining orders, and spousal support.
The respondent alleged abuse and sought spousal support based on need and alleged underemployment by the applicant.
The court found the marriage was short, the respondent had become self‑sufficient since separation, and any economic disadvantage arising from the marriage was minimal.
A restraining order was granted against the applicant due to evidence of ongoing contact and harassment, but the respondent was denied spousal support.
Divorce was granted to both parties.
