Opinion
FIELDS, J. *
Wife appeals from an interlocutory judgment of dissolution, contending the trial court lacked jurisdiction to impose a constructive trust on her separate property in favor of husband and ordering her to transfer to him a one-half interest in the property. Husband cross-appeals, assigning error to the court’s denial of his claim to a separate property interest in a joint tenancy savings account. We reverse the judgment.
