Coggins v. Coggins

MAXWELL, J.,

for the Court:

¶ 1. This is our second opportunity to review the chancellor’s award to Alicia Al*639varado Coggins of (1) periodic alimony and (2) the designation of beneficiary to her ex-husband’s life-insurance policy. When these two awards were first before this court in 2012, we reversed and remanded these issues back to the chancery court. The chancellor followed our mandate. He determined alimony was necessary, even when Alicia’s estate was properly valued, and he explained his reason for requiring Alicia’s ex-husband, Bill Coggins, to maintain life insurance for Alicia’s benefit.
