[EDITOR'S NOTE: This case is unpublished as indicated by the issuing court.] MEMORANDUM OF DECISION
1) The parties intermarried on July 21, 1996 at Milford, CT. CT Page 9715
  2) Both parties have lived in Connecticut for at least one (1) year next preceding the commencement of this action.
  3) As credibly testified, the marriage has broken down irretrievably and there is no reasonable hope for reconciliation.
4) The marriage is dissolved on ground of irretrievable breakdown.
  5) There are no minor children issue of the marriage and no children have been born to the wife during the marriage.
  6) The parties entered a partial agreement on some disputed issues. That agreement is found to be fair, just and equitable. That agreement, attached hereto, is incorporated in the judgment by reference.
  7) This is a clear case of a bilateral breakdown in a marriage. Each party shares blame for the breakdown.
  8) Considering all the criteria of 46b-82 C.G.S., I find the plaintiff is entitled to one ($1.00) dollar a year alimony until her death, remarriage or statutorily defined cohabitation. While all criteria were considered, health issues were persuasive.
