AC43613 - Pishal v. Pishal (Dissolution of marriage; motion to modify alimony; whether trial court improperly relied on rule of practice (§ 15-8) in denying defendant's motion to modify alimony; "In this postdissolution action, the defendant, Victor Pishal, appeals from the judgment of the trial court denying his motion to modify his alimony payments to the plaintiff, Cathie Pishal. The defendant claims that (1) the court improperly relied on Practice Book § 15-8, which applies to civil actions and not family matters, in concluding that he did not establish a prima facie case; (2) even if the court properly relied on § 15-8, it nonetheless improperly weighed the evidence and failed to properly consider whether he had presented sufficient evidence to establish a prima facie case; (3) the court abused its discretion in concluding that he was not entitled to the termination of his alimony obligation because the plaintiff was cohabitating with a third party; and (4) the court abused its discretion in concluding that he was not entitled to a modification of his alimony obligation because of a substantial change in his financial circumstances. We affirm the judgment of the court.")
