Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Scott D. Rosenberg, Judge. AFFIRMED ON BOTH APPEALS. Considered by Tabor, P.J., Greer, J., and Doyle, S.J. Opinion by Tabor, P.J. (7 pages)
Kimberly Bjugan appeals the equalization payment she received from her dissolution of marriage decree from Robert Allen, claiming the payment was too low to be equitable. Robert cross-appeals, claiming the equalization payment was too high to be equitable. Kimberly also requests appellate attorney fees. OPINION HOLDS: Because the district court’s equalization payment was fair and equitable for both parties under the circumstances, we affirm. We decline to award appellate attorney fees.
