Kentucky Supreme Court

Jude Weber v. Thomas Francis Lambe

March 23, 20172017 Ky. LEXIS 89

Summary

The Kentucky Supreme Court reviewed the Jefferson Family Court’s dissolution decree and the Court of Appeals’ partial reversal. It held that the family court did not err in including a portion of the children’s living expenses in the maintenance calculation, that a nine‑year maintenance award was within its discretion, that the court’s income determination for Lambe was proper, and that the award of attorney‑fee contributions was not an abuse of discretion. Accordingly, the Supreme Court affirmed those aspects and reversed the Court of Appeals’ directive to remand the maintenance duration.
