Appellate Court of Connecticut

495 A.2d 723 (Conn. App. Ct. 1985)

Opinion

(2967)

Argued June 5, 1985

Decision released July 23, 1985

Action for the dissolution of a marriage, and for other relief, brought to the Superior Court in the judicial district of New Haven and referred to Hon. A. Frederick Mignone, state trial referee; judgment dissolving the marriage and granting certain other relief, from which the defendant appealed to this court. No error.

William F. Gallagher, with whom, on the brief, was Charles R. Douthat, for the appellant (defendant).

James R. Greenfield, for the appellee (plaintiff).


In this appeal from the judgment dissolving the marriage of the parties, the defendant challenges the trial court's division of assets. The trial court has broad discretion in domestic relations cases, and our review of the exercise of such discretion is limited to whether the trial court correctly applied the law and could reasonably have concluded as it did. Holley v. Holley, 194 Conn. 25, 29, 478 A.2d 1000 (1984). A review of the record makes it clear that the division of assets was neither arbitrary nor an abuse of discretion. Anderson v. Anderson, 191 Conn. 46, 57, 463 A.2d 578 (1983); Solla v. Solla, 3 Conn. App. 415, 416, 489 A.2d 395 (1985).

Of the remaining issues briefed, two were rendered moot and a third was withdrawn from our consideration.
