Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Jeanie K. Vaudt, Judge. AFFIRMED AS MODIFIED AND REMANDED. Considered without oral argument by Tabor, C.J., and Greer and Buller, JJ. Opinion by Tabor, C.J. (9 pages)
Jennifer and Daniel King divorced. Jennifer appeals the district court’s award of spousal support, arguing it was inequitable and the court improperly considered the property division. Jennifer asks us to remand with directions to exchange tax returns. OPINION HOLDS: We find the district court properly considered property division when awarding spousal support, but we modify the duration of the award. Jennifer did not preserve her claim regarding the tax returns. Finally, we remand for the district court to calculate a reasonable appellate attorney fee award to Jennifer.
