Betty Bryant vs. Roy Bryant

In this divorce case, the trial court dissolved a marriage of over 36 years; divided the parties' marital property; and denied the request of Betty J. Bryant ("Wife") for attorney's fees. Wife appeals, arguing that the division of marital property is not equitable. Her argument is predicated primarily upon the assertion that her spouse, Roy C. Bryant ("Husband"), dissipated the marital assets as a result of his gambling activities. In addition, Wife contends that the trial court erred in refusing to award her attorney's fees. We affirm.
