RENDERED: JANUARY 31, 2014; 10:00 A.M. NOT TO BE PUBLISHED Commonwealth of Kentucky Court of Appeals NO. 2012-CA-001049-MR RENEE M. JEFFREYS v. APPELLANT APPEAL FROM KENTON CIRCUIT COURT HONORABLE CHRISTOPHER J. MEHLING, JUDGE ACTION NO. 08-CI-01631 MARK S. JEFFREYS APPELLEE OPINION AFFIRMING ** ** ** ** ** BEFORE: ACREE, CHIEF JUDGE; CLAYTON AND LAMBERT, JUDGES. CLAYTON, JUDGE: Appellant, Renee Jeffreys, appeals a Supplemental Decree of Dissolution of Marriage rendered by the Kenton Family/Circuit Court. She contends that the trial court did not follow the directive issued by our Court to award her maintenance. For the reasons that follow, we affirm. OPINION The parties were married in April of 1997 in Washington, D.C. They had two children during the marriage, K.A.J. born 8/29/2001 and V.E.J. born 5/31/2003. A Decree of Dissolution was entered by the trial court on May 7, 2009, in which Renee did not receive an award of maintenance. She filed an appeal from the original decree and our Court affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded the action to the trial court for further findings. Specifically, we asked for further conclusions of law regarding the issues of maintenance and the dischargeability of the debt to Renee s mother, Diana Minges. The trial court entered the Supplemental Decree on May 10, 2012. As to the issue of maintenance, the trial court stated that it was confused as to why our Court remanded on the issue of maintenance, since it found that Renee had not filed a motion to amend or clarify the Findings of Fact set forth by the trial court and that, therefore, the findings must be upheld. In reviewing our original decision, we agree with the trial court. The decision to remand on the issue of maintenance is not supported by the prior holding of our Court that Renee had not filed a motion to amend or clarify the findings of fact. Thus, we affirm the decision of the trial court in its Supplemental Order. ALL CONCUR. -2- BRIEF FOR APPELLANT: BRIEF FOR APPELLEE: Jennifer Scholl Overmann Crestview Hills, Kentucky Adrienne J.
