Date Published:

Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Clinton County, Mark R. Lawson, Judge.  AFFIRMED.  Considered by Schumacher, P.J., and Chicchelly and Buller, JJ.  Opinion by Chicchelly, J.  (8 pages)

            Karla Wunderlin challenges the rulings denying her request for an order nunc pro tunc and dismissing her application for rule to show cause.  OPINION HOLDS: I. Because the marital property order reflected the intent of the court in entering the decree dissolving Karla’s marriage to Wesley Unke, the district court did not err in denying Karla’s request for a nunc pro tunc order correcting it.  II. The district court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing Karla’s application for rule to show cause because Karla did not show Wesley willfully failed to pay his child support obligation.  III. We decline to award either party appellate attorney fees.
