Cantrell Trial Court Judge: Judge Walter C. Kurtz The husband of a woman who suffered a fatal heart attack shortly after being discharged from a hospital emergency room filed a medical malpractice suit against the treating doctor and the medical group for which he worked.

Code Ann. § 29-26-115. We affirm the trial court.	Davidson	Court of Appeals	05/03/96

Hayden D. Wilson, Jr., v. Kathryn Ann Moore 01A01-9506-CV-00235 Authoring Judge: Judge William C. Koch, Jr. Trial Court Judge: Judge Buddy D. Perry This appeal involves a marriage that failed in less than three years. The husband filed suit in the Circuit Court for Sequatchie County seeking a divorce and the enforcement of the parties’ prenuptial agreement. The wife also requested a divorce and challenged the validity of the prenuptial agreement. Following a bench trial, the trial court declared the parties divorced pursuant to Tenn. Code Ann. § 36-4-129(b) (1991) and upheld the prenuptial agreement. Accordingly, the trial court awarded the parties their personal property and directed the husband to assume certain credit card indebtedness and to provide the wife medical insurance for up to thirty-six months. Both parties take issue with various portions of the final divorce decree on this appeal. We have determined that the trial court erred by failing to consider the husband’s income earned during the marriage as marital property. Accordingly, we modify the division of marital property and the award of spousal support.	Sequatchie	Court of Appeals	05/03/96
