Amanda N. Burnett v. Aaron L. Burnett

Case Number
E2021-00900-COA-R3-CV
In this divorce action, Aaron Burnett (“Husband”) challenges the trial court’s classification and division of the parties’ assets, award of alimony in solido to Amanda Burnett (“Wife”), and permanent parenting plan (“PPP”). Husband also argues that the trial court erred in finding him in criminal contempt during the divorce trial. The PPP ordered by the court states that Husband is granted 90 days of parenting time per year, but the more specific day-to-day schedule provided in the plan allows for only about 63 days. Wife concedes that the PPP is inconsistent and also that the trial court improperly found Husband in contempt. Consequently, we vacate the day-to-day schedule in the PPP and remand for the trial court to craft a schedule that allows Husband 90 days, and we reverse the contempt finding. The trial court’s judgment is affirmed in all other respects.
