Cooper v. Cooper green

1982Because each case must be determined on its own facts, see Cooper v. Cooper, 298 Minn. 247 , 214 N.W.2d 682 (1974), and no single statutory factor for determining the type or amount of maintenance is dispositive, see Minn.Stat. § 518.552, subd. 2 (1980), it is important to examine the current situation for Rose and Marlin, noting that although the statute lists seven factors, the issue is basically the financial needs of Rose and her ability to meet those needs balanced against the financial condition of Marlin.
