Maintenance Decision
Failure to Make Effort to Achieve Financial Independence
The court did not err in awarding bi-weekly maintenance to a 32-year-old wife, following a 13-year marriage, without ordering that the award time-limited/reviewable and without ordering that the wife seek employment, where the wife had a high school education and no further training or education; further, notwithstanding the absence of such conditions, the award was reviewable and the wife was required to seek employment as this section allows modification upon a showing of a substantial change of circumstances, and the failure to make a good faith effort to achieve financial independence can be the basis for a petition for modification.
