Syllabus

A district court judgment dividing marital property, weighing the best interest factors and awarding parenting time is affirmed. A district court has broad discretion over the progress and conduct of a trial, and the determination whether to grant a continuance lies within the sound discretion of the district court. Under N.D.R.App.P. 38, this Court may award attorney's fees if the appeal is frivolous. An appeal is frivolous if it is flagrantly groundless, devoid of merit, or demonstrates persistence in the course of litigation which evidences bad faith.
