Barber v. Bradley

The circuit court dissolved the marriage of Husband and Wife and awarded Wife child support, reserving several other issues, including maintenance and property division, for later disposition. After those issues were decided, Husband appealed. The court of appeals affirmed the trial court’s judgment in its entirety. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the trial court (1) did not abuse its discretion in determining that the equity in the residence was marital property; and (2) abused its discretion in designating all household goods and furnishings as marital property and ordering those items divided by a random drawing.
