Justice: 
HARRIS
Court properly granted husband's petition to modify maintenance, and applied substantial change in circumstances to wife's petition to modify wherein she requested increase in maintenance from $14,500 to $35,000 per month. Court properly found that wife had not in good faith attempted to find work, despite her ability to obtain gainful employment as a licensed social worker, and thus court's judgment did not improperly require wife to liquidate her assets to satisfy judgments against her and support herself. (QUINN and CONNORS, concurring.)
