Case Number
M2002-02583-COA-R3-CV
This appeal arises from Wife's complaint for divorce. Based on Husband's failure to file an answer, Wife filed a motion for default and notice of hearing. Husband attended the hearing pro se and was afforded the opportunity to continue the hearing to retain legal counsel but declined to do so. After receiving testimony, the trial court awarded Wife a divorce, divided marital property and awarded Wife rehabilitative alimony for 60 months. Husband appeals, asserting that the trial court's division of marital property was not fair and equitable and that Wife did not provide proof sufficient to establish a proper basis for an award of rehabilitative alimony. We reverse and modify in part the division of marital property and indebtedness and reclassify the alimony from rehabilitative to in solido. In all other respects, we affirm the trial court.
