Ruppe v. Ruppe
Annotate this CaseTerri Lin Ruppe appealed a superior court order granting her divorce, determining custody, distributing marital property, and setting child support obligations for her former husband, Terry. She raised issues related to legal custody, the calculation of interim child support, the duration of permanent child support, the distribution of property, and the non-award of spousal support and attorney’s fees. After review of these arguments, the Alaska Supreme Court affirmed most of the superior court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law, but reversed its determination that payments Terry made during the pendency of the divorce could be credited against his post-divorce child support obligations.
