Supreme Court of Rhode Island
Carole Ann Thompson v. Thomas Callie Thompson
June 16, 19941994 R.I. LEXIS 192
Summary
The court upheld the equitable distribution of most marital assets, the rehabilitative alimony award, and the order requiring the husband to maintain health insurance for the wife. It held that the husband's municipal disability pension was not marital property subject to equitable distribution, although it could be considered income for support purposes. The court reversed the award of attorney fees because the wife had sufficient property to pay them and ordered reimbursement of half the amount paid from joint funds.
