Posted Nov.14, 2009 by Cynthia J. Remboldt, Esq., under Alimony, Divorce, Equitable Division, Prenuptial Agreement

 duty to disclose finances, financial disclosure, Prenuptial Agreement

Grant of partial summary judgment to husband in parties’ divorce case, REVERSED, as fact question remained regarding whether husband disclosed his income to wife prior to execution of prenuptial agreement;  wife did not have duty to inquire as to husband’s financial situation and insufficient evidence existed for Court to conclude as matter of law that parties’ standard of living prior to marriage put wife on notice that husband failed to disclose material facts so as to render nondisclosure immaterial.
