Heading: Proceeds from John's Pension

Text: [¶ 16] Taking into account the financial effect of the judgment as a whole, see Tibbetts v. Tibbetts, 2000 ME 210, ¶ 10, 762 A.2d 937, 940, the court's decision to award to John his interest in the pension does not constitute an abuse of discretion. The court awarded Kim an income-producing property and personal property of substantially greater value than the personal property awarded to John. [¶ 17] Although the value of the personal property may have been inflated, Kim did not dispute the valuation of this property at trial and does not contest the court's valuation in this appeal. Because Kim acceded to the valuation of the personal property, and because she will be responsible for roughly half as much debt as John, and will receive $200 per week in spousal support plus monthly rental income from the apartment building, we conclude that the court's decision to award John his pension was not demonstrably unfair or unjust, considering all the circumstances of the parties.
