Listen to this article

Thomas Spang appeals an order denying his motion to modify his maintenance obligation to Maureen Spang. Thomas requested the court either terminate or reduce maintenance because he had experienced a reduction in income. The circuit court reduced Thomas’s monthly payment from $650 to $400, but extended the length of the maintenance period so that Maureen would receive the same amount of money provided in the Spangs’ marital settlement. On appeal, Thomas argues the circuit court erroneously exercised its discretion by not reducing or terminating his obligation because he will suffer a monthly budgetary deficit if he has to pay maintenance.

We determine the circuit court properly exercised its discretion and affirm its order.
