Anderson v. Anderson
Annotate this CaseDorothea Anderson and John Anderson were married in 1996 and separated in 2012. The parties subsequently obtained a divorce. The circuit court divided the marital assets, including land and cash that John had inherited from his mother during the marriage, and awarded Dorothea child support. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the circuit court did not err by (1) including inherited and gifted land as a marital asset and divided it as such between the parties; (2) not including in the marital estate cash taken by Dorothea at the time of separation; (3) failing to make an adjustment to the property division for cash inherited from John’s mother; and (4) establishing a child support obligation for John.
