Taylor v. Taylor

We affirm all aspects of the final judgment of dissolution save one-we reverse the award of the marital home as lump sum alimony and remand for division of the home according to the principles of equitable distribution.

After 22 years of marriage, the wife filed a dissolution action on May 8, 2008. There was a final hearing, which only the wife attended, and the circuit court entered a final judgment of dissolution on October 16, 2008. On February 28, 2009, the wife remarried.
