Description
The respondent wife, Ruby, appeals from a divorce decree, and her chief complaints are the insufficiency of the open-end alimony award of $100 a month for 6 months, and $50 per month thereafter until further order of the court, and that part of the property division granting the husband their home property subject to her life estate. We affirm the decree of the District Court as modified. The parties are in their late forties, are childless, have been married 13 years, and the wife presently is in poor health. The petitioner, Jess, is a livestock trucker and the bulk of the assets are the capital and operating equipment of that business. They own a home which is worth about $17,500, subject to mortgage indebtedness of about $4,500. There is no serious dispute as to the court's finding that their net worth is about $24,000. Jess' business assets have a net worth of only $10,000, the equipment being mortgaged. His net income is about $14,000 per year. She makes $600 to $1,000 per year.
