SIGNIFICANT CASES
Bacon v. Bacon, 26 Mass. App. Ct. 117 (1988)
The Massachusetts Appeals Court affirmed the trial court's divorce judgment which awarded approximately $3.6 million of the marital estate to the wife and $200,000 to the husband with no alimony. The Appeals Court affirmed the divorce judgment based on the fact that during the twelve year marriage, the majority of the marital estate was largely acquired from the wife's inheritance. In addition, she used her inheritance to support the family and her inheritance appreciated in value due to her father's investment advice. Also, the husband played little role in the appreciation of the assets, used his income for his own purposes and relied on the wife to support him.
