Alaska Supreme Court

Jerry B., Appellant v. Sally B., Appellee

June 10, 20162016 Alas. LEXIS 75

Summary

The Alaska Supreme Court affirmed the superior court’s overall judgment in a divorce proceeding, finding no appearance of judicial bias, upholding the stay of discovery, and confirming the pre‑trial sale of the marital home and the treatment of education‑savings accounts. It held that the trial court erred in treating Sally’s attorney‑fee withdrawals as marital expenses and remanded for further consideration of those fees and of the property‑division findings related to the children’s needs. The balance of the judgment was affirmed.
