Alaska Supreme Court

Charles Wiegers, Appellant v. Amy Richards-Wiegers, Appellee.

May 11, 2018420 P.3d 1180

Summary

The court affirmed the superior court's valuation of the former husband's corporate stock at $217 per share because the record supported using a true-asset valuation method and did not establish that the valuation was clearly erroneous. It reversed the determination that the former wife's retirement health benefits were entirely non-marital, holding that benefits funded through her work during the marriage included a marital portion. The case was remanded for valuation of that portion and possible reconsideration of the equitable distribution.
