Robert Charbonneau appealed a final judgment of dissolution challenging the imputed income to his former wife, alimony amount, life insurance requirements, and disposition of a tax refund. Patricia Charbonneau cross-appealed the trial court's refusal to clarify mortgage payment responsibilities and allocate post-sale credits. The appellate court affirmed the judgment in all respects.
The court affirmed the final judgment in all respects, finding that the trial court's determinations regarding income imputation, alimony, life insurance, and tax refund disposition were proper. The court further affirmed that no clarification of post-sale credits was necessary, as the former wife's occupancy of the marital home constituted a benefit derived from a marital asset to which both parties held equal interest.

________________ No. 3D22-1507 Lower Tribunal No. 18-29043 ________________ Robert P. Charbonneau,
Appellant/Cross-Appellee,
vs.
Patricia Charbonneau,
Appellee/Cross-Appellant.
An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, Abby Cynamon, Judge. Jam Law PLLC, and Jason A. Martorella (Fort Myers), for appellant/cross-appellee. Lauri Waldman Ross, P.A., and Lauri Waldman Ross; Raquel A. Rodriguez & Associates, and Raquel A. Rodriguez, for appellee/cross-appellant. Before FERNANDEZ, GORDO and LOBREE, JJ. PER CURIAM.
Robert Charbonneau (“Former Husband”) appeals from a final judgment of dissolution, specifically the amount of income imputed to the Wife, the amount of alimony, maintenance of life insurance to secure alimony and the disposition of an income tax refund. Patricia Charbonneau (“Former Wife”) cross-appeals the trial court’s refusal to clarify the final judgment to allocate responsibility for mortgage payments and included expenses, and to make necessary adjustments of credits and setoffs.
We affirm the final judgment of dissolution in all respects. As to the Former Wife’s cross-appeal, we similarly affirm. The Former Wife benefitted from occupancy of the marital home from the date of the final judgment until sale of the marital home. The marital home, and the Former Wife’s ability to remain in residency until its sale, are benefits derived from a marital asset to which both parties held equal interest. No clarification of the parties’ post-sale credits is necessary.
Affirmed.
