What is the case law on compensatory orders of spousal support?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from Fratianni v. D’Ambrosio, 2019 ONSC 2190 (CanLII):
I start with the compensatory basis. The rationale behind compensatory orders of spousal support was explained in Moge v. Moge (1992 CanLII 25). Compensatory support orders are made to compensate for the sacrifices that one spouse made during the relationship that either negatively affected the spouse claiming support or provided an advantage to the spouse from whom support is claimed.
