Cathy Gwen Agee Swafford v. Danny Earl Swafford, Sr.

Syllabus

This is a divorce action involving the classification of the parties' separate and marital property and equitable division of the marital assets. Because we are unable to discern whether the trial court classified the wife's retirement accounts as marital or separate property prior to its division of the marital estate and because the trial court failed to make sufficient findings of fact regarding several items of property prior to the distribution, we hereby vacate the trial court's distribution of marital property. We remand this matter to the trial court for entry of sufficient findings of fact and conclusions of law regarding the classification, valuation, and ultimate distribution of the parties' marital property.

Judges: Judge Thomas R. Frierson, II
