Recorded Supported Award, Plus She Had $343,000 Net Worth—Ability To Pay.
In In re Marriage of Gagliano, Case Nos. B284308 et al. (2d Dist., Div. 4 Aug. 20, 2020) (unpublished), ex-wife suffered an adverse award of $75,000 in Family Code section 271 sanctions. The record showed that she presented altered emails to a doctor and delayed completing a 730 evaluation, with ex-husband spending $122,083.82 in attorney’s fees and costs during the process. It also showed that she had $343,000 in net worth, with the lower court believing that she was willfully suppressing her income pictures. Guess what, on appeal in light of this record, the 2/4 DCA affirmed.
