Wade and Laura both appeal from this final order. Lewis v. Fulkerson , 555 S.W.3d 432, 435-37 (Ky. App. 2017) (footnotes omitted) (emphasis added) (hereafter Lewis I ). In its analysis, the Court observed that "[t]he only fact witnesses who testified regarding the key element in Laura's gift claim and Wade's intent in funding the LRF Trust were Wade and Laura."
In appealing a family court's decision to exclude evidence, it is the appealing party's burden to show 1) the substance of the excluded evidence; 2) that it was an abuse of discretion to exclude the evidence; and 3) there was a substantial possibility the court would have reached a different result if the evidence had not been improperly excluded. Lewis v. Fulkerson, 555 S.W.3d 432, 439 (Ky. App. 2017).
