LOS ANGELES (AP) — Arnold Schwarzenegger has indicated in court filings that he does not want to pay Maria Shriver spousal support or her attorney's fees in their divorce case.
...
The issues of whether Shriver will receive spousal support and who will pay her attorney's fees are the only differences in their initial filings to end their 25-year marriage.

Classic response, but you’re dancing around the topic.
Spousal support seems to only be justifiable if one spouse makes material gains at the expense of the other. If Arnold forbade (in some fashion) Maria to work, I could see spousal support. But if she chose to do "public service" (euphemistic phrase for 'I'm a Kennedy and have no talent'), she shouldn't get anything.
Both were wealthy when they married; Maria is entitled (as I understand it) to half the wealth accumulated during the marriage. Not sure why she should get any more than that.
Attorney fees - yes, it was his fault they got divorced.
Maintenance - no, she can earn a living for herself.
Just child support - based on income...he should come out okay since his income has declined since he became Governator, unless he has income from his movies.
child support is a racket. so are the outdated laws defining custody.
Maria will win and Arnie can kiss his movies “comeback” good-bye.
Been there...done that?

My Dem friends and coworkers have *loved* to point out that her ran as an (R).
What a disgrace.
When I worked at Domino’s, there was a guy who worked there as a second job. EVERY penny he made there, wages tips, mileage, went to child support.
Leave her alone. When she comes home, (Wagner tail behind her), she’ll have a Verdi with him, no doubt.
Alimony = The screwing you get for the screwing you got...... I am presently on year 6 of 8..... sucks big time but I am past the hump and anxiously awaiting June 2014!!!!
Maria is going to take half his money, and make it not there....
child support is spousal support in disguise. based mostly on income of the father, and has nothing to do with actual costs of raising a child.
then the enforcing governmental body takes their cut to ensure the mother gets her free money.

You raise an interesting point. She was "forced" to quit her job in the media when he ran for office, I believe. I don't know if the love child was conceived before he ran for Governator or afterward. But she might have a case, with his position forcing her to give up her career.
CA is a no fault state, but I think Maria is in the public sympathetic position. That might get her more support from judges. You are not supposed to have secret children with the maid. It is frowned upon!
LOL!
Dick Tracy Shriver should have plenty of money,and if she was a WIFE why did he need to bonk the maid then?

And she’s got a very L-O-N-G Liszt.
