Jennifer O. Wilson (Oakley), v. Larry Arnold Wilson

Case Number
01A01-9707-CV-00325

In a documentary on how to complicate a simple divorce, this case would serve as a highlight film. After the trial court finally entered a final judgment, the parties on appeal argue about the trial judge’s refusal to recuse herself, a pre-nuptial agreement, the division of marital property, the award of attorney’s fees, and certain injunctions involving the custody and visitation with the parties’ minor child. We modify the judgment to give Dr. Oakley a $2,000 credit for her separate property awarded to Mr. Wilson and to make the judgment for attorney’s fees run to Mr. Wilson instead of his lawyer. In all other respects we affirm the judgment below.
