The trial court reduced his monthly obligation from $2,470 to $1,500 but rejected his argument to impute income to Wife due to her retirement and continued his life insurance obligation. The appellate court affirmed, finding the trial court did not abuse its discretion in determining that Wife's retirement was appropriate given her age and health, and that she made good faith efforts toward self-sufficiency.","primaryTopic":"divorce","topicSlugs":["divorce","family-law","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"unknown","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=163394","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/gregory-tillett-appellant-v-margaret-tillett-respondent-107965","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"family","label":"Family Law","href":"/practice-areas/family","score":32,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: family-law","topic: family-law","topic: divorce"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/family"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
