Furth v. Furth

Mr. PRESIDING JUSTICE STAMOS

delivered the opinion of the court:

This is an appeal from a divorce decree. Defendant appeals and contends :

1. The amount of the alimony award is excessive;

2. The amount of the award for plaintiffs attorneys fees is excessive; and

3. It is improper to enter a nunc pro tunc order to give a judgment retroactive effect.

The parties were married in March, 1962, and lived together until November, 1966. A son was born in December, 1963. After his birth the parties maintained full-time live-in help. The evidence reflects that they lived in a manner befitting their affluence.
