Kaspari v. Kaspari
Annotate this CaseThomas Kaspari appealed an amended judgment entered following a reversal and remand of an award of spousal support. On remand, the district court supplemented its findings and confirmed its prior spousal support award. Kaspari argued on appeal that the court did not adequately explain its decision and its findings are clearly erroneous. Because, after review, the North Dakota Supreme Court was “left with a definite and firm conviction a mistake has been made in awarding spousal support, without adequate explanation, in an amount more than double the recipient’s expenses as found by the court and advanced by the recipient, by including within the recipient’s need expenses paid on behalf of adult children, and by finding the obligor had an ability to pay based upon a 70-80 hour work week,” it reversed and remanded this case for reconsideration of an appropriate amount of spousal support.
