Nominal Spousal Maintenance
98.W seeks a nominal order until the final payment of the lump sum is made. She postulates particularly the situation that she may be in if she becomes unable to work. H opposes this. In my judgement it is proper to make a nominal order but in the anticipation that it is to be activated only in the event of her becoming unable to work. It will be dismissed upon payment of the lump sum in full.
