Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the wife could be imputed a hypothetical income in interim divorce measures
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. Given her age, health, lack of training, and poor job prospects, it was not arbitrary to refuse imputing a hypothetical income.
Extrahierte Begründung
The lower court could rely on the wife’s age, deficient health, absence of vocational training, and unsuccessful job search to conclude that her prospects of finding remunerated work were weak. On these facts, refusing a hypothetical income was not an arbitrary application of federal law.
