Facts

H and W were married and at the time of the trial, had three children, of which two were minors. The court entered orders regarding property distribution, alimony, child support, and other miscellaneous matters. As part of the dissolution decree, the court ordered H to pay W unallocated alimony and child support in equal semi-monthly installments on the first and fifteenth of each month, the annual sum of $95,000 based on his base salary of $225,000. W appealed in that the trial court 'improperly refused to admit into evidence a report detailing H's preseparation dissipation of marital assets . . . [and] that the court failed to consider evidence that H dissipated marital assets by spending large sums of money prior to the parties' separation. The Appellate Court declined to review H's claim. This appeal resulted.
