Marion Rodgers v. Frederick Rodgers

In this matrimonial action, plaintiff wife, Marion Rodgers, appeals, as limited by her brief, from stated portions of a judgment of the Supreme Court, Nassau County, which, among other things, granted her a divorce on the ground of abandonment, awarded her maintenance, and directed distribution of the marital property in a certain manner. She complains that the judgment failed to sufficiently reimburse her for the funds expended on necessities, that the maintenance award is inadequate, that equitable distribution of defendants interest in an automobile repair business, jointly held real estate, and non-vested pension was improperly denied, and that she should not have been required to pay her own counsel and expert fees. We modify the judgment in part and remit for further proceedings.
