The applicant father and respondent mother separated after a five-and-a-half-year cohabitation and brief marriage.
They have two young children.
The applicant sought sole or joint custody, while the respondent sought sole custody.
The court found a history of domestic violence by the applicant and high conflict between the parties, making joint custody inappropriate.
Sole custody was awarded to the respondent, with generous access to the applicant.
The court imputed income to the applicant at $206,700 and to the respondent at $27,000.
The applicant was ordered to pay table child support and mid-range spousal support for a fixed period of five years.
The court also valued the applicant's business and other assets, resulting in an equalization payment of $91,056.10 owed by the respondent to the applicant.
