Weidner v. Fradet Civil No. 920281 Neumann, Justice. Albert R. Weidner appeals from an order entered by the District Court for Cass County denying his motion to modify spousal support. We affirm pursuant to Rule 35.1(a)(2), (4), and (7), N.D.R.App.P. See Burrell v. Burrell, 359 N.W.2d 381, 384 (N.D. 1985)(temporary decreases in income do not justify a reduction in support payments); Lipp v. Lipp, 355 N.W.2d 817, 819 (N.D. 1984)(a court should not penalize a former spouse for initiative and remove incentive for self-betterment by reducing a support award); Huffman v. Huffman, 477 N.W.2d 594, 596 (N.D. 1991)(a court should be more reluctant to modify an original divorce decree based upon an agreement between the parties rather than a court's findings); Weir v. Weir, 374 N.W.2d 858, 862-64 (N.D. 1985)(the court should attempt to provide an equitable sharing of the overall reduction in the parties' separate standards of living). William A. Neumann
