* * *
A judgment of dissolution of marriage provided that the spousal support award was nonmodifiable until the husband reached the age of 62. A month before his 57th birthday, the husband requested that the court issue a Gavron warning[1] to the wife, admonishing her that she should endeavor to become self-supporting within the next five years. The court denied the request for the Gavron warning and the husband appeals.
The judgment of dissolution did not require that a Gavron warning be given at the five-year-remaining mark and the court did not abuse its discretion in refusing to issue the warning. The order is affirmed.
