In the recent case of Strauss v. Strauss , an interesting issue arose regarding whether monies received by Brian Strauss as part of a will contest were to be considered marital property subject to equitable distribution in the parties’ divorce action or Brian Strauss’ separate estate not subject to equitable distribution.
According to a 2011 Superior Court opinion, the parties married in 2000 and no children were born of the marriage. Both parties are approximately the same age, have an equal educational background and are employed. The difference in their earnings is not significant, with husband Brian Strauss earning approximately $75,000 gross per year and wife Yildiz Strauss earning about $54,000 gross per year.
