SINGAPORE: A High Court judge dismissed a woman’s appeal for spousal maintenance of S$2,500 a month, but also reduced her former husband’s share of marital assets by ten per cent, given his multiple attempts to undermine the marriage and the woman’s welfare.
The 39-year-old woman, an administrative assistant who takes home $2,340 (US$1,943) a month, will continue to get a nominal maintenance of $$1 a month, which was earlier awarded by a district judge.
