1Opinion of the Court
ROGERS, Associate Judge:
This is an appeal from a judgment distributing marital property. The issues presented on appeal are whether (1) there was sufficient evidence to support an award of a $10,000 equity to Mr. Bowser in the marital home, and (2) he was legally responsible for all of Mrs. Bowser’s medical bills. We hold the trial court’s findings of fact do not support its conclusions making the equity award and directing Mr. Bowser to submit health insurance forms for only one of Mrs. Bowser’s medical creditors. Accordingly, we reverse and remand.
