Imputed Income – The Appeals Court affirmed a divorce judgment in which an annual income of $120,000 was imputed, or attributed, to the wife, finding that she could earn such income “with reasonable effort.” The wife in this case had a history of earning a salary in that range and her underemployment was a result of her “unilateral decision.” Alexander v.
