Donald King vs. Betty King

This is an alimony case. The parties were married for twenty-nine years. The wife is disabled and unable to work. Upon divorce, the husband was ordered to pay alimony in futuro until the wife reaches sixty-two years of age. On appeal, the husband argues that the trial court improperly assessed the wife's living expenses, and that the husband will not be able to afford the necessities of life if he is required to fulfill his alimony obligation. We affirm, finding that the trial court did not abuse its discretion.
