Minnesota Court of Appeals' Judge Halbrooks Offers a Trio of Unpublished Divorce Opinions
Judge Halbrooks has been busy at the Minnesota Court of Appeals. She recently issued three dissolution decisions, none of which were published. Two cases involved property allocation issues, one involved a joint physical custody award and two involved child support calculations:
- Popel v. Popel: Minnesota Court of Appeals (Unpublished). Judge Halbrooks held that the district court did not abuse its discretion in awarding joint physical custody to the parties but remanded for a recalculation of child support and reallocation of non-marital interests.
- Blaeser v. Fiscus: Minnesota Court of Appeals (Unpublished). Judge Halbrooks opined that the district court did not abuse its discretion by failing to modify child support following the emancipation of appellant's oldest child.
- Murphy v. Murphy: Minnesota Court of Appeals (Unpublished) Judge Halbrooks found no error in the district court's unequal allocation of marital property.
