Highlight

In a divorce action, a spouse’s separate property, whether inherited or otherwise, must be included in the marital estate, and property brought into a marriage or acquired by gift or inheritance by one spouse may not be set aside to that spouse.

In dividing the marital estate, it is appropriate for the district court to consider the parties’ entire relationship when parties live together and then marry.

In a divorce action, the district court may award attorney’s fees when a party’s actions have unreasonably increased the time spent on a case.
