Date Published:

Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Carroll County, The Honorable John J. Haney, Judge. AFFIRMED AS MODIFIED ON APPEAL, AFFIRMED ON CROSS-APPEAL.  Considered without oral argument by Ahlers, P.J., and Chicchelly and Sandy, JJ.  Opinion by Ahlers, P.J.  (11 pages)

            Brenda Huegerich appeals the property-division, spousal-support, and trial-attorney-fee provisions of the district court’s decree dissolving her marriage to Steven Huegerich.  Steven cross-appeals the spousal-support award.  Both parties seek appellate attorney fees.  OPINION HOLDS: We modify the property-division provisions of the decree after accounting for several debts not accounted for by the district court.  We affirm the court’s spousal-support and trial-attorney-fee determinations.  We deny Steven’s request for appellate attorney fees and order him to pay one-half of the appellate attorney fees requested by Brenda.
