Opinion

RYLAARSDAM, Acting P. J.

Appellant Beth Ann Sellers appeals from a postjudgment order reducing spousal support. Among the several grounds raised, she attacks the court’s failure to issue a statement of decision after respondent, Michael F. Sellers, requested one. Husband contends there was no error because subsequent to his request, he filed a written waiver of a statement of decision, and the court deemed it waived. We agree with wife that the court was required to issue a statement of decision, and its failure to do so is reversible error.
