their planning of rehabilitation after only a few months told no one collected over two hundred fifty thousand dollars and rehabilitative remains for the better part of four years then deny that she had ever agreed to go to brantley to get an m b a and now says that's because that's not in the order well this was a twenty four year marriage it was approximately twenty four year marriage that's correct in the parties bavarian to attend brantley university to get an m b a she already had a four year business management degree from a university in tehran iran where this party emigrated from of the divorce and then after this four year plus four and a half year period of real rehabilitation in which she did not go to get her b a did not enroll in bradley as was stated in the s agreement never even in fact apply she had to associate degrees one in the subject of which she already had a bachelor and the other in hospitality management in then her john search which consisted desk clerk at a hotel at nine dollars an hour same as she was made in before she undertook this plan a rehabilitation wish several months after she started it she abandoned you know it's not unusual to pay maintenance in a situation where but this was a case where the parties bargained for rehabilitative maintenance with a review of the end of that period and which misses the very headed reason that she was going to mean that there can't be a reader relation no i don't think so at all and and i think you correctly pointed out what was done in this situation and what was intended in the situation the intent differential in the party turning power in the corner put on review with that point then enter into some sort of supplemental maintenance under those circumstances but that's not at hand here what happened here the m b a program at bradley she testified herself that she provided this information to her husband on her plan which she wanted to do before of this sudden movement that was put on the record in this case where under the authority of other cases that have been handed down by discord her after her failure to make reasonable efforts at rehabilitation or to become self sufficient our  sense that this lady abandoned her after she was also wondering who are congregation is part of the settlement agreement to notify and to send proof of her registration for classes a or whether she had a four year degree from ramle she would have been making more in all likelihood of than she was at the time going into this review here he did not find that it would not  alternative here would be for the court to do with the trial were given off versus tossed in the two thousand and nine supreme court decision which basically hal under somewhat similar facts were a woman who had walked agree had not made efforts to become self sufficient thanks to the trial judge essentially reduced the money that's kind of amazing hundred dollars to thirty five hundred dollars but extended it was i believe i am or about were or shortly after the revolution the islamic revolution the huston had similar degree matter of degree from iran prior to that in the fall of the revolution the parties immigrated to here immigrated to the united states she followed a year or two later it was after about that time iran and she had no education from that time to time they got a divorce well actually she did she had she bachelor's in the other in house fatality management which essentially created no benefit to her income potential we also asked that the attorney fees that were ordered to be paid here we were versed under the authority of kept asking for additional extensions of time today not once in those fifteen if party communications that he ever released this alleged rehabilitation plan the only time this alleged rehabilitation plan ever was concocted and brought to light was four matters never brought up anything in regards to the language of the judgment the solution of marriage not containing this alleged rehabilitation i submit to your honor's that there was no plan of rehabilitation in my plan agreed to end if you think about it logically it makes sense that she would not agree to something like that she did not while to college she was a student and almost sent for college at the time the judgement was over she did not acquire a college she did not apply to any graduate schools she had not taken the g r he she had not taken the g m a t she had no way you know that she would qualify for those things while in the world would she grieve for her rehabilitative maintenance to be tied to her completing an m b a program which she  in return for receiving rehabilitative maintenance basically it was a commoner by her council to explain why are you going to remain for years she's hoping the she's going to do these things and at the end of four years you're coming in for review she did not  when it was relevant to the absolute is attorney drew ghastly was present he commented on the record himself on a few things in the settlement agreement in both parties who represented this this was the agreement that was read in the record at that time and that also agreement i've probably lost a little more here really because of how difficult it was to go through but the simple fact is is that he was trying is his counsel was trying to get him to say that there was a meeting that occurred on the day of the settlement now moving on to my client's efforts as of course noted my client at the time of divorce was a forty seven year old iranian woman who came to this country along with her husband dr vereker instead of a girl in her own career she sacrificed her career to raise the bar as two children and to support dr varian in the furtherance of his career which included getting himself licensed as a doctor in the united states and all the work that he did do that which was not an easy task for him to do throughout the marriage my client did not working again jobs whatsoever only part time positions of very little pay did nothing basically that develop any type of a career for herself toward the end marriage immediately for the worse i believe  at the time of the poor she was working part time and making basically just a hero minimum wage with no benefits whatsoever after the judgment was entered my point completed her associate's degree in business administration  a program she discovered that her irene degree she could not she communicated with her school in iran they would not provide her with any evidence that she had completed the degree that testimony stands and  college in hospitality management and enter a field that she had an interest in which is hospitality management within a short time afterwards achieving her degree and by the way all the time that she was going to i c c she was also working for a short time part time and she work the time fifteen year old woman of four nationality with the education the lack of education and the lack of work experience that she had she was basically looking at entry level positions she wasn't going to come off you know even even with her college degree she was going to come out and you know after being out of the workforce for twenty four and if you're she was going to come out in the land of the fifty thousand dollars in your job she was looking at entry level she got her entry level job in her testimony was that this job provided her with full time work plus benefits which she didn't have at the time to do so there is a difference in her compensation although generally she's making about the same dollar amount of money she has benefits now which she didn't have before which are important to her because otherwise she wouldn't have health insurance and we all know what health insurance costs these days so she gives her job her testimony was that she did this entry level position because she felt it would there for her from the standpoint of being able to advance within that position and hopefully manage it will tell at some point in the near future but basically in her visit in her situation with her education and lack of any meaningful work it's entry level is what she was looking at and that's where she found the tryout work basically found that her attempts at rehabilitation although she didn't make every attempt the court found her tennis to be reasonable in light of the circumstances the core did make a comment that her not going for the m b a degree was somewhat reasonable in light of the difficulties that she faced in regards to the proof of her prior education the question here is would no reasonable  in these cases are really distinct i would i would submit to the core of the four of this your piece of call is probably more in line with this case involves a situation where the near you know a case where there is a there was a significant income disparity where destitute before your world turn is easy just means that any fees would undermine and strip your means of support in this case there was that although there was not an evidentiary hearing on fees the court had to work my financial affidavit which the court line with the other side she basically as i understood it you basically use the other side's fees as what was reasonable is a reasonable standard and then took what my client has already paid our firm and then equalize them or just basically order  of tehran accounting school she is a potential to find a job with the pay of forty to fifty thousand dollars annually at this moment as she desired to obtain master of business accounting from bradley university she only needs thirty credit hours to both of these folks are foreign to send their english is a little bit difficult and their understanding of how our work system works is that there's a little bit of a cold as well or they have some difficulty with it but the some statements made by mr urban suggesting well that misses the very never really committed these things then and well mr bavarians credibility may not be the best way to eighteen of the judgments with regard to the awarding of the indefinite maintenance the retroactive maintenance and the award of attorney stays in we ask that the court basically terminat
