How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• noting that any transmutation must have occurred, if at all, after the date of the common law marriage
• providing that when a court is considering an alimony award, \[n]o one factor is dispositive\ (quoting Allen v. Allen, 347 S.C. 177, 184, 554 S.E.2d 421, 425 (Ct. App. 2001))
• finding that barring alimony solely based on an eight-year marriage's length was an error when the parties' standard of living, relative incomes, and the husband's fault in breaking up the marriage favored awarding wife alimony
• \The burden is on the spouse claiming transmutation to produce objective evidence that the parties considered the property to be marital during the marriage.\
• \[South Carolina] courts have not determined that a relatively short marriage is the single determinative factor in denying alimony; alimony has been found proper in some cases where the marriage was of a much shorter duration than [nearly eight years]\
• discussing the subsection 20-3-130(C)(1) factor, duration of the marriage
