Re: spousal support
They determine spousal support by the needs of the supported spouse and the ability to pay of the supporting spouse. If income varies, the court will make a best estimate by considering past earnings or could set a sliding scale with a base, plus additional as income varies. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
