I dare not let the day go by without telling you about the Janice and Ira Schacter divorce (the Daily News hard copy headline is, “Bunny money: Ex pays for dissing hubby after he got sexy new pal,”<\/a> because a Playboy bunny wiggles into this story somehow).<\/p>\n

Doesn’t matter, though, because Janice Schacter…<\/p>\n

…had complained over the course of her contentious years-long divorce that her now ex-husband \u2014 a partner in a prestigious white shoe law firm \u2014 was abusive, and had blown over $200,000 on an engagement ring for his Playboy bunny galpal while stiffing his daughter out of hearing aid money. <\/em><\/p>\n

Ira Schacter, 54, said the allegations hurt his business at at Cadwalader, Wickersham and Taft, and lessened the value of his partnership.<\/em><\/p>\n

In a ruling made public Tuesday, Justice Laura Drager agreed, and found that as a result, Janice should only get 17% of the $5 million value of the partnership \u2014 about $855,000.<\/em><\/p>\n

She previously stood to collect about half, but \u201cin essence, the wife chose to bite the hand that fed her,\u201d Drager wrote.<\/em><\/p>\n

I am somewhat startled to read that Judge Drager, a “veteran matrimonial judge called the couple’s divorce ‘one of the most contentious litigations this court has ever presided over.'”<\/p>\n

OK, so this one is not chopped liver, but still I have been working my fingers off telling you about a lot of contentious divorces. I’d never challenge the judge’s evaluation, so maybe you should read the whole article and make that determination for yourself.<\/p>\n

True…<\/p>\n

They split in 2007 after they were both arrested for allegedly assaulting each other…<\/em><\/p>\n

Hm. One of the most contentious? What do you say?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
