Mississippi Supreme Court
Jessica Elizabeth Green McGee v. Alex Taylor McGee
October 24, 2024
Summary
The court affirmed the divorce judgment, holding that the chancellor properly limited equitable distribution of the husband's retirement account to property accumulated after the parties' remarriage and properly awarded joint legal and physical custody. The court concluded that the first divorce and property settlement resolved property accumulated during the first marriage, that no evidence showed joint accumulation during the intervening separation, and that the custody decision was supported by the best-interest factors and the record.
