Supreme Court of Delaware

Girardi v. Olsen

March 13, 2023

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Family Court’s ancillary-property judgment awarding the Ex-Wife 60% of the non-retirement marital assets, including the marital home, and 40% to the Ex-Husband. The Court held that the Family Court properly considered whether the home-related funds were a gift under the statutory equitable-distribution factors and did not abuse its discretion in declining to award the Ex-Wife more than 60%.
