Sharie Paul v. Marvin Lester Paul.

January 11, 20102010 R.I. LEXIS 7

Summary

The Rhode Island Supreme Court affirmed the Family Court’s order, holding that paragraph 7.B.1(b) of the parties’ handwritten settlement agreement was ambiguous and that the trial justice’s finding of the most equitable construction—requiring immediate listing of the four properties for sale—was not an abuse of discretion.
