Marriage of Farida
Because neither party in this family law case was completely forthcoming with respect to the amount of appellant's income, much of it apparently in cash received from appellant's retail liquor business, the family court determined the income available to appellant for child and spousal support purposes based on the court's estimate of the family's living expenses prior to separation and the fact that during the marriage appellant was the sole source of financial support for his family. The court's estimate of the family's living expenses is fully supported by the record, and given the record available, was a reasonable means of determining appellant's income.
