New York Court of Appeals

Amy N. Holterman, Respondent v. Robert K. Holterman, Appellant

June 10, 20043 N.Y.3d 1

Summary

The Court of Appeals affirmed the Supreme Court's judgment, holding that the trial court did not err in awarding the wife 35% of the marital portion of the husband's medical license and that the distributive award cannot be deducted from the husband's income for child‑support purposes under the Child Support Standards Act. The Court also found no abuse of discretion in applying the statutory child‑support formula and in upholding the award of attorney and expert fees.
