Bond v. Bond
Annotate this CaseLynne Bond appealed a judgment entered in the district court that denied part of her appeal to have her divorce decree amended. Mrs. Bond argued that the court erred or abused its discretion when it characterized her ex-husband Sheridan Bond’s business property as “almost entirely nonmarital and of negligible value.” As a result of the incorrect valuation of the business, Mrs. Bond argues the disposition of the marital property saddled her with a disproportionate share of the marital debts. The lower court made specific findings regarding the length of the marriage, the parties’ ages and incomes. The court determined that the business was gifted to Mr. Bond from his mother, and that there was little equity in it. The Supreme Court found that the lower court’s factual determinations were fully supported by the record, and that the court did not abuse its discretion in reaching its conclusion. The Court affirmed the lower court’s decision.
