In re Marriage of Caras
Annotate this CaseAppellant Wife filed for dissolution of her marriage to Husband. The district court found the marriage to be irretrievably broken, divided property between the parties, ordered Husband to pay child support and Wife's attorney fees, and denied Wife's request for maintenance. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding, inter alia, that the district court (1) was not prevented from properly valuing the properties of the estate; (2) did not err in its division of the marital estate; (3) did not err in calculating the amount of Husband's premarital contribution credit on certain properties; (4) did not err by failing to award maintenance to Wife; and (5) did not err in requiring Husband to pay Wife's attorney fees and in the calculation of those fees.
