Description
OAKS, Justice: In this appeal, the husband challenges the property settlement in a contested divorce decree. The parties, both of whom had children from prior marriages, were married about 7 years. Both parties had brought substantial properties to the marriage. Following the principle we have approved in cases like Georgedes v. Georgedes, Utah, 627 P.2d 44 (1981); Jesperson v. Jesperson, Utah, 610 P.2d 326 (1980), and Humphreys v. Humphreys, Utah, 520 P.2d 193 (1974), the district court concluded that each party should, in general, receive the real and personal property he or she brought to the marriage or inherited during the marriage. The question on appeal is whether the district court abused its discretion in applying that principle in three instances challenged by the husband.
