Survived Health Insurance Provision. The separation agreement contained a provision relating to health insurance that survived the judgment. It required husband “to maintain his health and dental insurance, or their reasonable equivalent, for the wife.” The husband retired and brought a modification, arguing that he could no longer to pay for the wife’s insurance. The Probate judge refused the modification and, on appeal, the appellate court affirmed. Because the provision survived, the husband had a nearly impossible burden in undoing the obligation; he had to prove “countervailing equities,” which he was unable to do. Casey v. Casey, 84 Mass.App.Ct. 1122 (December 2, 2013)
