Senger v. Senger
Annotate this CaseJames Senger appealed a divorce judgment entered following a bench trial. He argued the district court erred by retroactively applying an amended and reenacted version of N.D.C.C. § 14-05-24(1) in valuing the marital estate and, thereby, erred by considering inadmissible evidence and incorrectly valuing the marital home and bank accounts. He further argued the court erred by distributing marital property and by awarding Denise Senger spousal support. The North Dakota Supreme Court reversed the court’s award to James for unaccounted for cash withdrawals as a marital asset and remanded with instructions to further explain its reasoning on any unjustified use or dissipation of marital assets by James. The district court's judgment was affirmed in all other respects, and the matter remanded for reconsideration of spousal support in light of any changes made in the division of property.
