State Court

Court of Appeals
Randall M. Howe, Michael S. Catlett, Jennifer M. Perkins

Summary

The wife argued that the husband’s business valuation expert was not credible or reliable even though she was Accredited in Business Valuation (ABV) and used methods of business valuation common to appraisers. However, the wife did not provide an expert, and the trial court refused to speculate on the value and adopted the value of the husband’s expert. The appellate court found that appropriate and not an abuse of discretion.
