Mary Jane Wallahan, Plaintiff and Respondent v. Franklin J. Wallahan, Defendant and Appellant

Summary

The South Dakota Supreme Court affirmed the trial court’s judgment on property division, alimony, child support, life‑insurance award and attorneys’ fees, finding no abuse of discretion, and remanded the case for the trial court to determine the reasonable amount of attorneys’ fees incurred on appeal. The court rejected the appellant’s arguments that the trial court erred on factual findings, tax considerations, retirement‑fund valuation, and contingent liabilities.
