Supreme Court of Delaware
Fielder v. Fielder
March 9, 2020
Summary
The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Family Court’s alimony award and rejected the appellant’s challenges to the imputed income, expense calculations, and treatment of tax debt. The court held that the Family Court’s income attribution and exclusion of a post-separation vehicle payment were not arbitrary, capricious, or reversible error, and it declined to consider two arguments that were not fairly presented below. The court stated that any change in employment supporting modification must first be presented to the Family Court.
