STATEMENTREGARDINGORALARGUMENT

The Court should grant oral argument because it would give the Court a

more complete understanding of the facts presented by her case, and although this

is not a terribly complicated case, oral argument would allow the Court to better

analyze the legal issues presented by appeal.

vi STATEMENTOF THE CASE

Nature of the case: This is an appeal from an unequal division of a martial estate in which Respondent was not awarded one half the value of the community business, nor was that value accounted for elsewhere, where Respondent was awarded a lower value of retirement benefits than what the value was as of the date of divorce, and Respondent was not awarded any spousal maintenance though the evidence showed her to be a stay at home wife and mom for 23 years.

District Court: Hon. Sandra Jackson, Presiding Judge 302 nd Judicial District Court in Dallas County.

Course of Proceedings: Petitioner, Dwight Hill, filed for divorce because the marriage had become irreconcilable. Respondent, Maribel Hill, filed an answer and a counter-petition for cruelty in the marriage. The child had turned 18 prior to the divorce.

District Court Disposition: Following a bench trial on June 17th and June 20th of 2024, Respondent, after three attempts, had a motion for spousal maintenance heard but the Court never issued a ruling. Respondent and Petitioner had various hearings regarding the decree and the Court's rulings. The Court showed much partiality to Petitioner's attorneys and attempted to create and censor the record to match her predetermined rulings. This is not unusual as there are many cases on appeal regarding the 302nd. Respondent filed requesting Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and the late notice but the Court never issued any Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law.

The Court ordered that Petitioner receive 63% and the wife 37% of the marital community estate, not counting the reduction of retirement benefits, all which can easily be remedied by this Honorable Court.

ix STATEMENT OF FACTS

On June 17th and 24 th, 2024, a non-jury trial took place in the matter of Hill

vs. Hill. The parties were married from October 19, 2001 to June 20, 2024. (CR P.

85, 99) Final rulings were rendered on December 10, 2024. (CR P. 99) Respondent

timely filed her request for Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law (FFCL) (CR P.

113-118) and timely filed her past due notice of FFCL (CR P. 164-166) FFCL were

never filed by _theCourt. The trial Court, successfully and unsuccessfully, sought to

craft the record to fit her predetermined rulings of divesting Respondent of her share

of Dwight Hill Insurance Agency, Inc (DHIA), (TRV3 P. 92, lines 19-22), spousal

support (TRV3 P. 102, lines 2-21 ), and oflowering the value of her future retirement

benefits, the most valuable assets of the marital estate. 1 (TRV3 P. 7, lines 17-25 &

P. 8, lines 1-16, P. 72, lines 18-19; TRV2 P. 180, lines 1 - P. 186, line 9, as some

examples) Petitioner was allowed to provide long winded answers while

1 TRV3 P. 7, lines 17-22 - Maribel Hill testimony - Q: "So the property at Fort Velasco, right now, there's a house on that property, true? A: That's flooded right now, yes. Q: Objection, nonresponsive. A: yes Court: sustained" Q: It's got a house.." Court: "Mrs. Hill, he's going to ask you questions."; P. 8 line 6 "Don't add anything else."; P. 8 line 10-14, Ms. Lopez: "Objection, Your Honor. I asked questions to Mr. Hill he added a lot of other things. The Court: "And I object---listen, don't your start with me. Sit down." Ms. Lopez: "I'm just objecting, your Honor."; P. 72, lines 17-20 Ms. Lopez: "How long have you been a stay at home mom and wife? A: Almost 23 years. Q: And were you allowed to work outside the home? The Court: okay. That's redundant, Counsel. She's said it before."

1 Respondent's testimony was limited. (TRV2 & TRV3) Petitioner received 63% of

the marital estate and Respondent received 37% of the marital estate.

SUMMARY OF THE ARGUMENT

The trial Court committed reversable error, abused her discretion,

misapplied the law, did not understand some of her own rulings when she rendered

an unequal division of the marital estate in favor of Petitioner. The court

misapplied the law, and did not understand her own ruling, when she reduced the

value of Respondent's share of the future retirement benefits, known as extended

termination payments, to be received by Respondent as, if and when received by

Petitioner. The Court abused her discretion and committed clear error by divesting

Respondent of$ 364,000, her share of the value of the marital estate community

business, DHIA, without equalizing Respondent's share elsewhere. The Court

abused her discretion in not awarding Respondent, a stay-at-home wife and mother

of twenty-three (23) years, who has been denied one job after the other, any

spousal maintenance and left her without any income. Respondent is living off of a

retirement account that charges penalties and taxes every time money is pulled out

and said account will soon be exhausted.

ARGUMENT

2 A trial court is charged with dividing a community estate in a "just and

equitable" manner, considering the rights of BOTH parties. Tex. Fam. Code§ 7.001

(Vernon 2006). A trial court's division of a martial estate is reviewed for an abuse

of discretion. Murf v. Murf, 615 S.W.2d 696, 698 (Tex. 1981). "A trial court abuses

its discretion if it acts without reference to any guiding rules and principles such that

the ruling is arbitrary or unreasonable." Espe, 2021 WL 2021137, at *1 (Citing Cire

v. Cummings, 134 S.W.3d 835, 838-39 (Tex.2004); Evaristo Gabriel Vazquez V.

Jessica Lynn Bailey, No. 03-22-00290-CV at *3 (Tex. App. Apr 25, 2024, no pet.)

In determining whether the trial court abused its discretion by deciding an issue

without sufficient support, the court uses a two pronged inquiry: ( 1) did the trial

court have sufficient evidence upon which to exercise its discretion and (2) did the

trial court err in its application to that discretion. Boyd v. Boyd, 131 S.W.3d 611 (Tex.

App. - Fort Worth 2004) The division need not be equal, and an unequal division

will be upheld on appeal so long as a reasonable basis exists for it. Muri, 615 S.W.

2d 696, 698, 699 (Tex. 1981). In exercising its discretion in dividing the estate, the

trial court may consider many factors, commonly known as the "Murf factors,"

including, but not limited to, the nature of the property, the disparity of incomes or

earning capacities, the parties business opportunities, the parties relative financial

condition and obligations, the parties education and physical condition, the benefit

the innocent spouse would have received had the marriage continued and the

3 probable need for future support. Id. at 699; In re C.A.S., 405 S.W.3d 373,384 (Tex.

App. -Dallas 2013, no pet.)

The abuse of discretion standard overlaps with traditional sufficiency standard

of review in family law cases. Evaristo, No. 03-22-00290-CV at *3 (Tex. App. Apr

25, 2024, no pet.).; Zeifman v. Michels, 212 S.w.3d 582,588 (Tex. App.-Austin 2006,

pet. Denied) Challenges to legal and factual sufficiency do not constitute

independent grounds for asserting errors but are instead relevant factors in

determining whether the trial court abused its discretion. Evaristo, No. 03-22-00290-

CV at *3 (Tex. App. Apr 25, 2024, no pet.); Espe, 2021 WL 2021137, at *2 (Citing

Cire, 134 S.W.3d 835, 838-39 (Tex.2004) "Evidence is legally sufficient when it

would enable reasonable and fair minded people to reach the verdict under review

and is factually insufficient only if it is so contrary to the overwhelming weight of

the evidence as to be clearly wrong and unjust." Evaristo, No. 03-22-00290-CV at

*3 (Tex. App. Apr 25, 2024, no pet.); A.S. v. Texas Dep 1 of Fam. & Protective Servs.,

665 S.W.3d 786, 795 (Tex. App.-Austin 2023, no pet.) "A trial court does not abuse

its discretion if there is at least some substantive, probative evidence that "exists to

support the trial court's decision." Evaristo, No. 03-22-00290-CV at *3 (Tex. App.

Apr 25, 2024, no pet.); Espe, 2021 WL 2021137, at *2 (Citing Cire, 134 S.W.3d 835,

838-39 (Tex.2004). "To convince this court to disturb the trial court's division of

property, Timothy must show the trial court clearly abused its discretion by a

4 division or an order that is manifestly unjust and unfair." Sharma vs. Routh, 302

S.W. 3d 355, 360 (Tex. App.-Houston, [14th District] 2009, no petition). The Court's

division was manifestly biased, unjust, against the weight of the evidence, unfair,

clear error, misapplication of law and had no reasonable basis to render an unequal

division of a LARGE estate in favor of Petitioner. Fair minded reasonable people

would never reach such an unfair verdict.

Respondent hereby incorporates all paragraphs together within this brief as

much is interrelated.

I. THE TRIAL COURT ERRED AND ABUSED HER DISCRETION IN DIVESTING RESPONDENT'S COMPLETE INTEREST IN DHIA THEREBY CREATING AN UNEQUAL DIVISION OF THE MARITAL ESTATE

A. THE MARITAL ESTATE OVERALL

The community estate had total assets of approximately $ 3,046,898 (EX A;

TRV3 P. 133-140), excluding future retirement benefits (termination and extended

termination payments), agreed children's distributions, deemed separate property

nor small personal property with unsupported values, such as jewelry, guns, and used

furniture. Community assets awarded to the Petitioner was $ 1,918,203.50 and to

Respondent was$ 1,128,694.50, a 63/37 split. Had Respondent received her share

of DHIA, the correctly characterized community property business (TRV3 P. 88,

lines 8-10), Petitioner would have received 51% of the community estate and

5 Respondent 49%, a more equal division. Of course, the future retirement benefits

are not in play in this breakdown. The breakdown is as follows (EX A & EX C):

1) Real property (beach property= Velasco & Nesmith (5 lots on Nesmith)

$961,000.00 - $ 265,000.00 (Velasco) = $ 696,000.00 total

Velasco's mortgage rests on Elsby (EX D; TRV3 P. 39, Lines 11-25, P. 40

- P. 41, Lines 1-5, P. 174-187), Respondent's separate property. (TRV3 P.

85, Lines 23-25) Of note, during the bench trial, Velasco and all beach

property was being inundated by the current hurricane. Petitioner

continuously leveraged Elsby (TRV3 P. 38, lines 24-25, P. 39 - P. 41, line

11) to acquire beach property free and clear of loans. Petitioner benefited

from this strategy because all property he received is free and clear of

loans. Petitioner, knowing he was going to file for divorce, paid off

everything, including all vehicles, and left Respondent's separate property,

Elsby, she and her college kids need to live in, with a hefty mortgage. (EX

A & D) This makes Velasco a wash and not a credit to Petitioner. Elsby's

mortgage is now three times higher post marriage. (TRV3 P. 156-160, EX

E) Elsby had a $ 78,522 mortgage on it, prior to marriage, and was being

paid$ 83,583.52 for a claim that originated, prior to marriage, to repair the

downstairs. (TRV3 P. 37, lines 18-25, P. 38, lines 1-2; EXE) The insurance

company paid the contractors as they repaired the home. (TRV3 P. 38, lines

6 3-5) Within months of marriage, Petitioner began leveraging the property

by refinancing it over and over in order to gain cash to buy other properties.

(TRV 3 P. 38, lines 24-25, P. 39 lines 1-7; EX E) Upon divorce, Elsby is

the only asset encumbered, and since the Court wrongfully divested

Respondent of her share of the income of the community business (TRV3

P. 92, lines 2-21), though she agreed fifty percent (50%) of the business

income belonged to Respondent,2 and denied spousal maintenance (TRV3

P. 102, lines 2-21), Respondent cannot qualify to assume the now higher

mortgage herself. With that, the Court ordered Respondent to sign the

Assumption Deed of Trust, attached to the decree (EX C), as of September

15, 2025 (SME p. 31, lines 18-25, P. 32-P. 40, line 11), which was not

only not a ruling at trial (TRV3 Pg. 85-111), this places a lot of power on

Petitioner to acquire Respondent's separate property home if she misses a

single payment. Respondent signing said assumption to her separate

property home is injustice when the Court divested Respondent's interest

in DHIA and no spousal maintenance, leaving her without an income, after

being a stay at home wife and mother for twenty-three (23) years, making

it impossible for Respondent to assume the mortgage alone, and when the

2 TRV3 P. 89, lines 11-12 The Court: "It is the income of the business that's community property. That's why the Court said on that it's 50/50."

7 Court could have ordered the home be paid off like all the other property

was. The Court's impartial rulings and unequal division of the marital

estate is leading to a once wealthy woman's indigency, which was not

necessary, being that the value of the estate was several million dollars and

the community business earns close to $ 500,000 per year. Insurance

premiums only continue to rise.

107 Nesmith, known as the three beachfront buildable beach lots, valued

at $546,000, was ordered to be sold, and wife not be allowed to be the

broker. (TRV3 P. 86, LINES 8-16) The split was ordered as 35% net to

Petitioner and 65% net to Respondent to offset the whole life policy's ALL

being awarded to Petitioner. (TRV3 P. 102, lines 9-21) The Court lowered

the recovery of the property because 6% must be paid to a realtor, and

Respondent, holding a real estate license, could have saved 3% of the

realtor fees and/or gained some income.

Total to Petitioner: $ 75,000 (123 Nesmith) + 191,100 (pre-net of 107 Nesmith) = $266,100

$ 75,000 + $ 141,414 (net)= $216,414

Total to Respondent:$ 75,000 (118 Nesmith)+ 354,900 (pre-net of 107 Nesmith)=$ 429,900

$ 75,000 + $ 262,626.00 (net)=$ 337,626.

8 Unfortunately, 107 Nesmith remains for sale. (SRSM P. 9, lines 22-25 &

P. 10, lines 1-21) With high interest rates and the real estate market in a

sludge, beach properties are not moving. Should the Court allow any

receivership, to sell the lots, in the future, this will increase the unequal

division of the estate as Petitioner has already received all of the whole life

policies without any taxes or penalties.

CASH AND FINANCIAL ACCOUNTS

Petitioner - $ 90,579.50. Petitioner previously received his $ 52,742.00

(TRV3 P. 87, lines 20-22)

Respondent- $ 66,099.50 (this lasted about 6 months as Respondent's

minimum bills are $ 10,000 per month (TRV3 P. 51, lines 13-16, SCR P.

232-236; SCR P. 20-22)

2) CLOSELY HELD BUSINESS INTERESTS

Petitioner - $ 728,058.50; DHIA valued at $ 728,000.00 based on net

income (TRV2 P. 194, Lines 1-5 and 21-25, P. 195, lines 1-19, P. 1129-

1140, EX F P. 7) + $ 117/2=$ 58.50

Respondent - $ 602.50; Restore Entertainment - $ 544.00 + $ 117/2=$

58.50. Restore was a community joint venture (TRV3 P. 26, lines 18-23,

P. 42, lines 24-25, P. 43, lines 1-14; EX G, TRV3 P. 346) that never

generated income. The court's ruling is unclear as to whether she is

9 deducting, adding or neither Petitioner's claimed $ 89,502 he unfairly

wants credited to the wife as an asset she received when it was a

community venture and Restore has no worth. {TRV3 P. 43, lines 7-8, P.

88, lines 2-4; EX A & G)

3) RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS

Petitioner-$ 604,886.50

Respondent - $ 605,592.50

4) MOTOR VEHICLES

Petitioner - $ 22,600.00

Respondent - $26,500.00

5) MISCELLANEOUS ASSETS

The court did not assign values to these items on spreadsheet as no

evidence/appraisals existed and each was awarded what they had in their

possession. {TRV3 P. 95, Lines 2-11)

6) INSURANCE - Whole Life Policies

Petitioner - $ 203,538 (TRV3 P. 95, lines 21-24)

Respondent - $ 0.00

B. DWIGHT HILL INSURANCE AGENCY, INC. (DHIA)

DHIA opened after marriage. {TRV3p. 363-364, EX H) Respondent was fifty

percent (50%) shareholder on the K-ls {TRV3P. 44, lines 17-25, P. 45, lines 1-3, P.

10 375, EX K) and reflected as a co-owner on loans (TRV3 P. 790-792, EX.I) as well,

though Petitioner controlled all the money. (TRV3 P. 45, lines 6-7) Respondent was

on the K-ls as fifty percent (50%) shareholder every year. (TRV3 P. 365 -788)

Respondent was not allowed to have a credit card in her name until Restore was

opened. (TRV3 P. 45, lines 8-13)

Though the Court correctly characterized (DHIA) and the income it generated

as community property with a fifty-fifty (50/50) split (TRV3 P. 89, lines 6-12), she

later stated she was talking about termination payments (TRV3 P. 89, lines 18-23)

and refused to award Respondent fifty percent ( 50%) of the actual value of DHIA.

This does not make sense since she clearly stated, "The next distribution, under the

businesses, would be to .... ", indicating she had moved on to the next subject, which

was DHIA, after completing termination payment rulings. (TRV3 P. 89, lines 22-25

& P.88, lines 11-25) The Court erroneously misapplied the law if she treated the

termination payments as one half the value ofDHIA. Had the Court issued findings

of fact and conclusions of law the reason would be known. In fact, Fuqua did not

consider the termination payments when valuing the business at $ 728,000.00.

(TRV2 P. 193, lines 19-25) Termination payments are not for the sale of the business 3

3 Warren Baker, JR and Dorris J. Baker vs. Commissioner of Internal Revenue, No. 02-3262 *5 US Court of Appeals (2003)

11 but are instead deferred compensation to be divided upon divorce. 4 Termination

payments are income to be divided upon retirement or termination, if, as and when

received, to incentivize an agent to not become State Farm's competitor, but is

nevertheless, not the VALUE of the business. Alternatively, the Court abused her

discretion and followed Petitioner's cues, like head movements (TRV3 P. 91, lines

5-6), eye contact or just straight words into the record, that occurred throughout the

trial, to render that manifestly unjust and clearly wrong lack of award of the value

ofDHIA that no reasonable person would have done.

Moreover, the Court undoubtedly turned a deaf ear to the $ 728,000 valuation

ofDHIA by Mr. Fuqua, claiming she didn't hear said valuation. (TRV3 P. 89, lines

24-25 & P. 90, lines 1-18) When asked if she was going to award zero dollars to the

wife of the community business earning about half a million a year (TRV3 P. 90,

lines 22-25), she said she didn't say that (TRV3 P. 91, line 2), yet in the end that is

exactly what she did (Ex C) Petitioner, upon hearing the trial court was not going to

award zero dollars to Respondent for the community business, guided the Court on

how to repair the award of "50% income" to the wife, alleging she was referring to

termination payments. (TRV3 P. 91, lines 1-25)

4 In the Matter of the Marriage of WilliamC. Wadeand Frances Carol Wade,923 S.W.2d 735 (Tex. App.-Texarkana, 1996, no writ)

12 The Court then stated the "expert said the business can't be sold." (TRV3 P.

91, lines 20-23) Notice how the court reiterated for the record, during trial, with Mr.

Fuqua, the NON State Farm expert, that, he BELIEVES the agency cannot be sold.

(TRV2 P. 199, lines 1-3, The Court: "Sir, one question from the Court. Am I hearing

you say that a State Farm Agency cannot be sold?" Fuqua: "Not that I'm aware.")

Fuqua does not know for sure whether the agency can be sold or not and has admitted

that it could be sold with State Farm permission.

The Court certainly did not clarify his valuation of$ 728,000 for DHIA nor

that he admitted the contract that applies in THIS divorce says it can be sold with

State Farm permission. (TRV2 P. 186, lines 24-25 & P. 187, lines 1-6) Notice the

Court also did not reiterate for the record that Mr. Fuqua admitted he is NOT a State

Farm expert, has never worked for State Farm and is deriving all of his information

from Petitioner, himself. (TRV2 and TRV3) Though the Court, when necessary,

treated Fuqua as a State Farm expert to justify her impartial rulings (TRV3 P. 92,

lines 12-15), in a different occasion, she admitted that there was NO State Farm

expert testimony. (TRV3 P. 107, lines 6-7) Nonetheless, the Court, though she stated

she didn't HEAR Fuqua value the business, she later stated" ... and he objected to

that ... " (TRV3 P. 90, lines 9-10), when Respondent said he testified to the valuation

as$ 728,000.00. (TRV3 P. 89, lines 24-25 & P. 90, line 1) Clearly, the Court heard

the valuation. In fact, the Court also stated, "Based on what you did preliminarily

13 then what Mr. Orsinger did not do, and then when you did what you did, Mr.

Orsinger was given latitude by the Court to give value." (TRV3 P. 90, lines 11-14)

What Respondent "did" was object to the report as hearsay, at the time that it was,

at the beginning of trial (TRV2 P.184, lines 23-25; P. 185, lines 1 - 25; P. 186, lines

1-23) and questioned Fuqua on the report after the foundation was appropriately laid.

(TRV2 P. 188, lines 19-25; P. 189, lines 1-25; P. 190, lines 1-25; P. 194, lines 1-5)

What Petitioner "did not do" was purposefully not question Fuqua on the value of

the business, so there would not be evidence in the record as to the value, because

the Court had struck Respondent's accountant expert, Vantarakis. (TRV2 P.154,

lines 23-25) If there is not a value in the record, then the Court doesn't have a hard

number to use in awarding Respondent her fifty percent (50%) interest in DHIA.

Petitioner did not anticipate that Respondent had cross designated Fuqua, so

after much discussion with the Court, Respondent was finally able to question Mr.

Fuqua on the value he had rendered for DHIA but was prevented from fully

developing said valuation because the Court made Respondent "yield her time"

(TRV3 P. 179, lines 23 - P. 190, line 20) to return Fuqua to Petitioner to

"rehabilitate" him in the manner that he needed to (TRV2 P. 180, lines 1 - P. 186,

line 9), when Petitioner continued.to inappropriately object to Respondent being able

to question Fuqua on the value. Petitioner had the opportunity to question Fuqua on

the value, after laying the appropriate foundation, and prior to Respondent's

14 questioning of Fuqua, but deliberately chose not to. Please read pages 180 through

186 of TRV2, though other areas of the transcript evidence such as well, to see the

level of impartiality exhibited by the Court in favor of Petitioner and the aid

Petitioner received from the Court to prevent the value of the business from entering

the record. Respondent had the right and responsibility to object to an expert report

as hearsay until the expert was on the stand and a foundation laid. The Court used

Respondent's objection to the hearsay document, appropriately made at the

beginning of trial, to try to censor the record on the value of the business since

Petitioner's goal was to exclude said value. It is evident in these pages that the Court

was figuring out how Petitioner wanted her to rule so she could comply. Why would

any Judge ask one party if it was THEIR intention to admit a produced trial exhibit

or not and then exclude it based on THAT party's intention instead of on whether

the document was authenticated by the expert and now admissible? This is clear

impartiality and cannot be allowed in our Court system, especially family law courts

where families' livelihoods are at stake. Real families whose lives are being turned

upside down by a divorce are in desperate need of our Courts to be impartial, fair

and to divide an estate in a just, right and fair manner and protect the well-being of

ALL parties in the process.

As a result of more partiality, Respondent was cut short of her attorney

questioning her and developing what she needed to develop in regards to abuse,

15 health issues and earning capacity, in addition to being censored in questioning

Fuqua. When the Court was trying to figure out whole life policies, the Court stated

she didn't hear certain evidence and Respondent's attorney stated, "Because I got

cut short." (TRV3 P. 97, lines 21-22) The trial court responded "You didn't get cut

short. You ran out of time." (TRV3 P. 97, lines 23-25) The record reflects how much

time Respondent had for her attorney to develop her side of the case and how much

time Petitioner had to develop his case. Please see the Offer of Proof for all the

evidence Respondent was purposefully not given time to offer. (TRV3 P. 81, lines

24 - P. 84, line 19) This is impartiality, at best. Nonetheless, following Petitioner's

leading questions to Fuqua making him testify as if he is completely incompetent

and didn't know what he was doing when he rendered a valuation of the business

(TRV3 P. 190, lines 23 -P. 192, line 20), Respondent, on redirect, was able to obtain

the value of the business on the record. Fuqua testified the value of DHIA in 2022

was $ 728,000, and testified to the method he employed to derive at such valuation.

Notice Fuqua testified that the valuation of$ 728,000, did not have anything to do

with the termination payments because he testified that they were not considered in

the valuation, as they should not have been. See as follows:

TRV2, P.193, line 3 -25 (Fuqua Testimony)

Q. So you're telling me that you did not have the State Farm Agreement when you rendered this opinion because you just testified earlier with me that you did?

16 A. We did not consider the State Farm Agreement nor the termination payments when we came up with that valuation.

Q. And how many years have you been doing this?

A. Twenty-five or 30.

Q. And how many divorce cases have you testified in?

A. Over a hundred.

Q. And do you normally not read the agreement that they have, though it's been provided to you, and you provided it as one of the things that you reviewed, prior to rendering your analysis of what you felt the business was worth?

A. No, we read it.

Q. So you did read it?

A. Yes.

Q. Okay. And so, all of the documents that were provided that you said you looked at that you reviewed when you rendered the $728,000 that you stated in your report that you reviewed, you did consider when you made your evaluation of $728,000, true?

A. Not as it being freely transferable and not with respect to the termination payments. We did not consider that.

TRV2, P. 194, lines 1 - 25 (Fuqua Testimony)

Q. Okay. Here's where I would like some help if you don't mind. I do not understand if the value is $748,600 based on 2022 or if it's $728,000?

A. 728,000. We used the capitalization of earnings met. We did not use the market data method.

17 Q. Okay. And when you did this analysis, on Report 002857, okay, it was based on earnings of $331,790 and in 2019, $329,888, 2020, 335,274, '21, 371,474 '22, correct? This is your report.

A. Incorrect.

Q. Incorrect. So what did you use these numbers for-

A. You're confusing the term revenues and the term income.

Q. Okay. So in your total revenues, these numbers were part of your analysis, true?

A. True.

Q. And in 2023, have you seen that tax return?

A. I have.

Q: And how much was that?

A: As I sit here today, I cannot recall.

Q: So let me just show you that it is $438,000 for 2023.

A: The revenues?

Q: 1120, yes.

A: We look at the net income. We don't go into the revenues.

TRV2, P. 195, lines 1 - 10 (Fuqua Testimony)

Q. That would certainly not decrease a 728,000 dollar value, true?

A. Would you mind moving it up so we can see what the net income shows of 154,000?

Q. Yeah

18 A. That's the number that we would frequently use in trying to come up with our capitalization earnings method.

Q: Okay. Which you did the same thing, right, for these years?

A. Correct.

TRV2, P. 188, lines 4-8 (Fuqua Testimony)

Q. Okay. But you did provide a list of insurance agents that have sold their business, true?

A. I do believe that, in most of our valuation reports, we include some comparable's, if we can find them, similar companies that have been sold, yes.

TRV2, P. 195, lines 14-19 (Fuqua Testimony)

Q. When you do a valuation of a business, do you normally account for when somebody lives through the business?

A. Yeah, we try to consider any kind of personal expenses that were paid out of the business.

Q. And did you do that when you did this report?

A. Probably not to the extent that you would like us to.

Fuqua valued the business for $ 728,000, in 2022, with comparable, after

reviewing the specific contract between DHIA and State Farm, looking at the

revenue and income after considering personal expenses, and that report was to be

used at trial as a number in which to award Respondent her share of the value of the

business. All businesses have a value and this business should have been divided

fifty-fifty (50/50). Of note, Fuqua did not update the valuation (EX F) as the earnings

consistently increased, making the business likely worth more. {TRV2 P. 194, Lines

19 21-22) In reality, Petitioner would only have been giving Respondent less than one

year's income on a business he will continue to earn almost half a million dollars on

for years to come, making $ 364,000, not exactly a fair award either. The income

that will continue to be made, after marriage, came from the renewal of premiums

derived during the marriage. Had Petitioner not filed for divorce, Respondent would

have benefited from the continued earnings of the community business and would

not be in financial distress.

Though Fuqua was qualified to conduct a business valuation based on the

revenue and income earned, he was and is not qualified to make decisions on whether

State Farm would allow the servicing of policies by DHIA to be sold or assigned to

another agent for a profit. A reasonable person would not believe that he could make

such decision when he stated he was not a State Farm expert, not a State Farm

representative and that he derived the information from Petitioner (TRV2 P. 172,

lines 8-15) and when he admitted the contract says it can be sold with State Farm's

permission. Nevertheless, the court would use the terminology, "the expert said",

to attempt to justify her predetermined rulings regarding whether DHIA could be

sold and how to calculate the value of the percentage for the extended termination

pay, the two biggest disputed items in this divorce. Yet, the Court made clear when

discussing termination payment values that there was NO State Farm expert. (TRV3

P. 107, lines 6-8, THE COURT: Unless you-all brought an expert in from State

20 Farm, which you did not, then the Court would have a hard number but we don't.")

The Court is incorrect that a hard number does not exist and erred because State

Farm gave the hard number on the value already earned as of the date of divorce as

$ 6,888 for termination payment and$ 6,816 for extended termination payment. (See

Exhibit B)

The ONLY State Farm evidence, before the Court, was the contract between

State Farm and DHIA stating State Farm can give permission to sell or assign DHIA

and the values earned, as of the date of divorce, for termination and for extended

termination payments, all directly from State Farm. While Fuqua could value the

business, Fuqua could not change the terms of the contract between State Fann and

DHIA. While Fuqua could read the value of the termination and the extended

termination payments, already placed by State Farm themselves, as of the date of

divorce, on State Farm's document (Exhibit B), Fuqua cannot change the terms of

the already earned value. In fact, an expert is not needed to know the value of the

termination and extended termination payments because all one has to do is read

State Farm's document, EX B. This document does not require expert knowledge.

Fuqua also cannot change Berry which states retirement benefits are to be valued as

of the date of divorce AS IF ELIGIBLE TO RETIRE. Berry v. Berry, 647 S.W.2d 945,

946 (Tex.1983) Expert testimony is not needed to read or understand: "The

following are your estimated monthly termination and Extended Termination

21 Payments by company assuming a 5/31/2024 termination date ..... Term Pay $ 6,888

and Ext Term Pay$ 6,816." (EX B) Without question, the already earned amount as

of the date of divorce, was known at the time the divorce decree was signed. This is

clear error, misapplication of the law, unjust, against the great weight of the

evidence, and so manifestly unfair that it is just plain wrong.

The Court divesting Respondent/wife of ALL of her community interest in

DHIA (TRV2 P. 179, lines 23-25 - P. 186, line 9, P. 188, lines 16 - P. 190, line 20,

P. 199, lines 1-3), without any equalization, is an abuse of discretion. 5 The Court,

after Petitioner's million inappropriate objections to Respondent questioning Mr.

Fuqua of the DHIA valuation, though perfectly appropriate to do so, told

Respondent, right as Respondent was starting to question Fuqua on the valuation of

the business, "Ms. Lopez, you 're going to yield your time. Sit down" (TRV2 P. 190,

lines 17-18) and passed Fuqua back to Petitioner to undo his testimony. Respondent

was in shock, paralyzed, at the level of abuse of power, the level of impartiality and

complete disregard for the rule of law. Respondent's counsel has never seen such

blatant bias at a trial before. Though partiality and hostility has been the norm with

this Court, this level of impartiality was not fathomable. The Fifth Court of Appeals

5 Craig v. Craig, 31 Tex. 203, 204 (1868) (finding abuse of discretion when trial court's property division divested one party of "all his property".

22 has countless appeals regarding this Court. (See Court of Appeals 5th District) Clear

abuse of discretion and of power.

The Court, the morning of trial, excluded Alex Vantarakis, Respondent's

accountant expert who agreed with Fuqua's $ 728,000 valuation of DHIA up to year

2022. (TRV2 P. 148, line 24-25 & P. 152, line 23; TRV3 P. 84, line 14-18)

Accordingly, Petitioner, with the aid of the Court, changed his trial strategy to

exclude the business valuation, altogether, and argue 'the business cannot be sold"

(TRV2 P. 180, lines 15-21, P. 181, lines 23-25, P. 182, line l,P. 190, lines 1-5),

arguing that Respondent receives zero of her interest in the business.

Nonetheless, the Court not dividing the$ 728,000 value allowed Petitioner a

windfall of$ 364,000.00, that unequivocally belongs to Respondent. This is clear

error. Sharma vs. Routh, 302 S.W. 3d 355, 360 (Tex. App. -Houston, [14th District]

2009, no petition) The estate was large enough to, at a minimum, assess that value

elsewhere. For instance, the Court could have awarded all three beach front lots, 107

Nesmith, to Respondent to equalize the value of the business, instead of a 35%/65%

net profit split, which was made to equalize Petitioner receiving all of the whole life

policies. With that said, Respondent needs income so a buyout would have allowed

Respondent income to live on while still allowing Petitioner a large income as well.

23 Fuqua, was paid a minimum of$ 8,000.00 {TRV2P. 174, line 24) to value the

business and he testified that he took various factors, such as income and revenue

into account when assessing the value. (TRV2 P. 194, lines 14-16, 24) Fuqua would

not have been hired to conduct a business valuation if DHIA did not have a value to

divide upon divorce.

1. EVIDENCE IGNORED BY THE COURT

a. DHIA/State Farm contract states under Section VI (B):

" ..... and no right in any sum due or to become due to the agent

hereunder can be sold, assigned, or pledged without the prior written

consent of the Companies." {TRV2 P. 461 - 472, EX J) Clearly, an

agency can be sold to another State Farm agent with State Farm

perm1ss1on.

b. Fuqua admits he read the contract prior to rendering his report. (TRV2

P. 193, Line 12-18)

c. Fuqua's valuation of$ 728,000. (EX F and prior paragraphs)

d. Fuqua's admission that the contract states the agency can be sold with

State Farm permission. See Fuqua's testimony TRV2 P. 186, lines 24 -

25 and TRV2 P. 187, lines 1-9:

24 Q. And you testified today that an insurance agency that is contracted

with State Farm is unable to be sold or assigned, true, to anyone?

A. Not without State Farm's permission that is correct.

Q. So with State Farm's permission, then it can be assigned?

A. Conceptually, if State Fann were to agree to it, I guess that it could.

Like I said, because of the termination payments, being so lucrative, no

one would want to jeopardize their termination payments by either

trying to sell or compete against State Farm. It's just not logical.

Fuqua's assertion that if the agency is sold or assigned for a profit

termination payments are forfeited is unfounded, not grounded in

anything and not logical. There is no evidence that says that if an agent

sells his book of business, with State Farm permission, to obviously an

approved agent he/she loses his termination payments. What is not

logical here is for State Farm to give permission for an agent to sell

their business to Allstate or another insurance company's agent, thereby

competing with State Farm. Termination payments are not affected by

selling an agency to another State Farm agent with State Farm

permission as the seller/agent is not competing with State Farm. As

Fuqua states, "Like I said, because of the termination payments, being

so lucrative, no one would want to jeopardize their termination

25 payments by either trying to sell or compete against State Farm. It's just

not logical." It is definitely not logical for an agent to not seek State

Farm permission to sell the agency to another State Farm agent and it

would not be logical to retire before receiving full retirement benefits.

e. Fuqua's admission that insurance agencies are sold and valued by

similar comparables and that he did such in this case. {TRV2 P. 188,

lines 4-8)

f. No State Farm expert testimony was in evidence, as Court admits,6

other than documents straight from State Farm.

g. Fuqua admitted he is not a State Farm expert or representative, nor has

he ever worked for State Farm {TRV2 p. 172, lines 4-7p. 174, lines 14-

16) and only knows about State Farm through Petitioner and the agent's

agreement. (TRV2 P. 172, lines 8-15)

h. Petitioner admits his father transferred accounts to him when he got

started. (TRV2 P. 91, lines 18-23)

1. Petitioner admits his contract states agency can be sold with State Farm

permission. (TRV2 p. 94, lines 15-19)

6 TRV3 P. 107 "The Court: Unless you-all brought an expert in from State Farm, which you did

not ..... ";

26 j. Fuqua, thirty-year accountant, clearly valued DHIA. (TRV2 p. 193, line

8-9; EX F)

k. Petitioner's admission that no State Farm expert is there to validate his

testimony that contradicts the DHIA/State Farm contract. (TRV2 P. 94,

lines 23-25, P. 95, Line 1)

I. Petitioner's admission, that he himself, hired Fuqua to value DHIA.

(TRV2 P. 95, lines 4-6)

Without FFCL, it appears the Court used the excuse to completely divest

Respondent of her interest in DHIA on insufficient evidence and grounds, relying on

contradictory verbiage from a non State Farm expert, that "the business cannot be

sold" (TRV2 P. 199, lines 1-3), while also admitting it can be sold with State Farm

permission, and all while ignoring the actual State Farm evidence stating in black

and white that it can be sold with permission and the admissions thereto. No

reasonable, fair minded person would disregard the State Fann/DHIA contract and

admissions, and award the wife zero for the value of the business, nor at a minimum

equalize Respondent's share elsewhere in the estate. This is legally and factually

insufficient evidence, clear error, an abuse of discretion, manifestly unjust and so

unfair to just be plain wrong. Even if the business could not be sold, a divisible value

still exists, which is why a value was placed, and a reasonable and objective fair

minded person would divide it. Should DHIA not be able to be sold and/or had no

27 value to divide upon divorce, either way, Petitioner would not have spent $ 8,000

valuing the business and would have hired a State Farm expert to come state that the

business cannot be sold or assigned through any manner. Petitioner, himself,

received assigned accounts in the past. Of note, the termination payments are not

payments made for the sale of the business either.7 Those benefits are separate and

apart from the sale of the business.

In Hancock, the spouse owned an insurance agency with no buyers, derived

during the marriage, and the Court considered this agency to be a community

business t~at consisted of an insurance agency receiving income from renewal of

premiums that arose during the marriage. Hancock v. Hancock, No. 2-06-376-CV

(Tex. App. 7/31/2007, No. 2-06-376-CV {Tex. App. Jul 31, 2008) "Because the

business was the community asset being valued, not the individual renewals, we

cannot say that Rice improperly considered the anticipated revenue in valuing the

agency or that the trial court abused its discretion by including the amount in its

valuation of the agency." Id at *7 "Based on the above discussion, we hold that the

trial court did not abuse its discretion by valuing the insurance agency at $

170,520.00." Id. Similar to Hancock, DHIA had a value placed, $ 728,000, after

7 "While Baker built the insurance agency; the tools he used were on loan from State Farm. State Farm's termination payments were not for the sale of a business where a buyer was able to step into the seller's shoes." Warren Baker, JR and Dorris J. Baker vs. Commissioner of Internal Revenue, No. 02-3262 US Court of Appeals (2003) Termination Payments are ordinary income." Id at 5.

28 considering all factors and the Court should have divided the value the same as in

Hancock. Regardless of whether there was a buyer, whether or not it could be sold,

the law requires a fair, just and right division of a marital .estate and to arrive at such

the Court should have awarded$ 364,000, to be paid to Respondent over time, or

have equalized the division of the estate by awarding Respondent her share ofDHIA,

$ 364,000, in another manner such as all of 107 Nesmith.

C. UNEQUAL DIVISION OF THE MARTIAL ESTATE CAN EASILY BE REMEDIED The disparagingly disproportionate and unfair overall division of the

community estate can be remedied by this Honorable Court by ordering the trial

court to award Respondent her$ 364,000, interest in DHIA, to be paid over a period

of time. This is not to include retirement benefits or spousal maintenance. Awarding

Respondent her share of the $ 364,000, to be paid over time, would better equalize

the estate to a 51/49% division of the marital estate, though Petitioner will continue

to make substantial income for years to come based on the renewal of premiums

derived during the 23 year marriage. This would also allow Respondent to have an

income to qualify to assume the mortgage on Elsby and afford her an opportunity to

rehabilitate herself in the workforce while not becoming indigent in the process, as

she is fifty-five years of age and ill. (TRV3 P. 50, lines 11-P. 51, line 12) Retirement

is built over decades, not over ten years. By the time Respondent is sixty years of

age, she would have used all of the retirement fund awarded to her to meet her

29 minimum reasonable needs since that is how she is supporting herself now while

trying to build a real estate and mortgage company, after being denied countless jobs.

(SRSM P. 47, lines 12-21, P. 29, lines 7- P. 30, line 8) Being awarded one half of the

real property was just but it takes time to sell real property and in the meantime

property taxes, mortgage, living and upkeep must be paid. Divesting Respondent of

$ 364,000, that rightfully belongs to her, when an estate could support awarding such

to the wife, is an abuse of discretion as that lack of division is manifestly unjust and

unfair. Our legislatures and Courts created the standard, just, right and fair division

of a marital estate to protect both parties in a divorce.

Furthermore, Petitioner rendered the estate cash poor so there was not much

liquid money to divide for the wife to live on. (EX A) The money that could be

borrowed against, without having to qualify, were the whole life policies which were

given to Petitioner completely. This left Respondent without a way to access any

money since she does not currently qualify for loans. Now that the community

business was given to the Petitioner, without a buyout, Petitioner earns about $

35,000 to $ 40,000 per month while Respondent earns $ 0.00 per month. This must

be equalized. In fact, Respondent is paying for leads, with her retirement money she

is pulling out, to try to obtain real estate and mortgage clients but has received zero

income to date. (See Spousal Maintenance section of the brief) Petitioner filed for

divorce, not Respondent, and had Respondent still been married she would also be

30 earning $35,000 to $40,000 per month and would not be in financial distress. Given

the factors in Muri, if an unequal division of the estate were to occur, it would have

been reasonable for Respondent to receive a higher percentage of the estate due to

her lack of income, age, years of marriage, health and the nature of the property.

Respondent prays this Honorable Court reverse the trial Court and award

Respondent$ 364,000, for her share ofDHIA, to be paid over time.

II.THE TRIAL COURT ERRED, MISAPPLIED THE LAW AND ABUSED HER DISCRETION IN REDUCING THE VALUE OF RESPONDENT'S EXTENDED TERMINTION PAYMENTS (RETIREMENT BENEFITS) WHEN A CLEAR VALUE EXISTED AT THE TIME OF DIVORCE

The Court erroneously reduced the value of Respondent's extended

termination pay from 31.63% of$ 6,816.00 to 31.63% of$ 4,269.00 based on

insufficient evidence, not understanding what "actuarial" means, a misapplication of

and contrary to law. (TRV3 P. 106, line 24- P. 110, lines 9; EX B & C; CR P. 84-114

& TRV3 P. 816) There is no "actuarial division" at State Farm, as stated by the

Court, (TRV3 P. 109, lines 13-14) evidencing that she did not understand what her

ruling actually was. The Court refused to view Exhibit B (TRV3 P. 106, lines 11-

12), which Respondent was utilizing to seek clarification on whether the 31.63%

would apply against the $ 6,701 or the actuarily reduced amount of$ 4,169.00,

values assessed as of May 30, 2024. The document, EX B, clearly shows the

numbers earned, as of May 30, 2024, and below a different set of numbers if one

31 retires early. It would not be logical, as stated by Fuqua, to risk losing full retirement

benefits. Consequently, Petitioner, if he didn't qualify under the Early Notification

Program to retire on June 20, 2024, for full benefits, would not likely retire before

the age of sixty-five (65) since he was a few months shy of sixty (60) years of age

upon divorce. With that said, Petitioner already qualified for full benefits under the

Early Notification Program. The Court would not allow Respondent to place the

document so that clarification could be obtained. (TRV3 P. 105, line 23 - P. 106,

lines 23) However, the Court allowed Petitioner to argue facts so she could comply

with their analysis to award the actuarily reduced value of extended termination

payments, instead of the already earned amount, that she herself did not understand.

State Farm, themselves, had already determined the value of benefits earned as of

June 20, 2024, the date of divorce, in black and white, and the Court ignored that.

(EX B) State Farm's evidence weighs much more than an accountant who has never

worked for State Farm, nor is a State Farm expert. Clearly, the Court erred by not

understanding what actuarially reduced is, by ignoring State Farm's clear

numbers/values as of the date of divorce and not applying the correct value to

Respondent's 31.63% of the extended termination payments (EX B; TRV3 P. 6-8),

regardless ofFuqua's non State Farm expert testimony, and in compliance with Berry

and Wade.

32 Extended termination payments are characterized as community property

and should be divided upon divorce.8 The court properly characterized the

extended termination pay as community property. {TRV3 P. 88, line 22) The

Court properly determined the percentage of 31.63% of the retirement benefits,

based on the years of marriage. However, the court committed error when she

reduced the value of these retirement benefits without following Berry, Wade and

other case law, and without an understanding of what "actuarily reduced" is as

she thought that was a division of State Farm. When the value of such benefits is

in issue, however, the benefits are to be apportioned to the spouse based upon the

value of the community's interest at the time of divorce. Matter of Marriage of

Wade, 923 S.W.2d 735 at *739 (1996); Berry v. Berry, 647 S.W.2d 945, 947

(Tex.1983) "Specifically, the trial court is to determine the amount of benefits the

earning spouse would receive on the date of divorce IF he or she WERE

ELIGIBLE for the benefits on that date. Id at 946. Though Petitioner, as of May

30, 2024, qualified for the $ 6,701, and as of June 20, 2024, qualified for the $

6,816, value of extended termination payments under the Early Termination

Program (EX B), Respondent argues, in the alternative, under Berry and Wade,

8 "Unmatured retirement benefits earned during marriage are community assets subject to division upon divorce; such benefits are not earned on day on which they mature, but are instead a form of deferred compensation earned each month of employment; at time of divorce, they constitute contingent property interest of the marital estate." In the Matter of the Marriage of William C. Wade and Frances Carol Wade, 923 S.W.2d 735 (Tex.App.-Texarkana, 1996, no writ);

33 this deferred compensation is valued as if ELIGIBLE TO RETIRE, regardless.

The $ 6,701 value was undisputedly earned as of May 30, 2024, according to State

Farm. (EX B) Because Petitioner was not sixty-five (65), at the time of divorce,

does not negate the value earned as of the date of divorce, June 20, 2024, which

was $ 6,816. (EX B) If Petitioner did not qualify under the Early Notification

Program, which he did, then IF he were fully eligible to retire on the date of

divorce the value of extended termination payments was$ 6,816.00, as per State

Farm, the ONLY State Farm evidence. By the time Petitioner retires, that amount

will increase. Respondent is not entitled to the increase over$ 6,816.00, and did

not request for any amount above$ 6,816.00.

Our legislatures would never devise a system where retirement benefits are

earned during a marriage, but upon divorce, the nonworking spouse doesn't

acquire the already earned retirement benefits just because the working spouse is

not eligible to RECEIVE them at the time of divorce. That would be unjust leaving

a working spouse with all of the retirement and the nonworking spouse, who likely

cared for the kids and for the working spouse, for years, without a retirement at

all. Many companies do not provide retirement benefits at all if one retires before

the designated age of retirement with that company. All of those nonworking

spouses, or stay at home spouses, would not have any retirement income under

34 that scenario. Our legislature protects nonworking spouses and stay at home

moms and dads from this very abuse.

In Berry, Berry, at the time of divorce, was NOT entitled to ANY

retirement benefits at all because he was not yet sixty years of age, which was the

prerequisite under the noncontributory retirement plan. Berry, 641 S.W.2d 945

(Tex.1983) However, though Berry was making $ 946.34 per month, at actual

retirement, Berry would have received $ 221.21 per month had he been fully

eligible to retire at the time of divorce. Id. at 946. Berry had already earned $

221.21 per month for retirement at the time of divorce but could not receive it

until he was 60 years of age. Similarly, Petitioner had already earned $ 6,816.00,

per month, but was not yet eligible to receive it, since he was not yet 65 years of

age, that is ifhe did not qualify already under the Early Notification Program.

Though Ms. Berry was not entitled to any post divorce increases m

retirement benefits, she was entitled to$ 110.60 per month, 50% of what the value

was at the time of divorce AS IF ELIGIBLE to retire. Id Similarly, Respondent

is entitled to receive 31.63% (based on years of marriage) of$ 6,816, as of the

date of divorce, as if Petitioner was 65 years of age and fully eligible to retire on

the date of divorce. Again, Petitioner was actually already eligible under the Early

Notification Program as well. (EX B)

35 Reducing the value of Respondent's extended termination payments was clear

error, unjust, unfair, misapplication of law, misunderstanding of the facts and law, a

misunderstanding of what actuarily reduced means and how that does or does not

apply, and an abuse of discretion. Logically, Petitioner would have hired a State

Farm expert to testify had the value been$ 4,269.00, at the time of divorce. In reality,

had a State Farm expert testified, that expert would have reiterated the document

produced by State Farm that the earned value is $ 6,816.00, at the time of divorce.

Respondent requests this Honorable Court order the trial Court to award

Respondent 31.63% of$ 6,816.00, the value at the time of divorce, to be paid for

Extended Termination payments if, as and when received by Petitioner.

III. THE TRIAL COURT ERRED AND ABUSED HER DISCRETION IN DENYING SPOUSAL MAINTENANCE

Under Tex. Fam. Code Sec. 8.051, 8.052, 8.053, and 8.054, the court may

order maintenance for either spouse only if the spouse seeking maintenance will lack

sufficient property, including the spouse's separate property, on dissolution of the

marriage to provide for the spouse's minimum reasonable needs if the spouse has

been married to the other spouse for 10 years or longer and lacks the ability to earn

sufficient income to provide for the spouse's minimum reasonable needs and has

exercised reasonable diligence in earning sufficient income to provide for her

36 mm1mum reasonable needs or developing skills necessary to provide for her

minimum reasonable needs.

Here, though there is much real property, the nonworking spouse, wife and

mother, does not have any income, nor liquid assets, nor does she have any access

to borrowing money. In fact, Respondent was left without sufficient money to pay

for her own counsel. As such, Respondent's first attorneys were not fully defending

Respondent and minimizing the required discovery disclosures. (SCR P. 7, 11) Said

counsel withdrew from representing Respondent. (SCR P. 13) Respondent's sister

filed a notice of appearance and represented Respondent free of charge (SCR P. 17)

because Respondent had been left without money. Moreover, Respondent had to file

a Motion for Temporary Orders because Petitioner had closed bank accounts and

credit cards preventing Respondent from accessing any money to live and pay bills

while one child was still under 18 years of age. (SCR P. 20 - 22) Petitioner spent

roughly$ 109,000, in one attorneys' fees (TRV3 P. 76, line 3), and unnecessarily

brought in another attorney from San Antonio, Orsinger, as well, and spent more

money on attorneys' fees. Petitioner benefited greatly from Respondent's sister not

having charged the estate to defend Respondent the same $ 109,000 + Orsinger's

fees, Petitioner's attorneys gained. The time Respondent and her attorney spent to

attempt to figure out the finances was enormous since Petitioner controlled all of the

finances. With that said, attorneys were not necessary at all for Petitioner since

37 Respondent's sister offered to draft the decree for free provided all would be split

50/50. (TRV3 P. 146, lines 4 - 12)

Furthermore, had the Court awarded Respondent some of the whole life

policies, she could have at least borrowed against them, without having to qualify

for a loan, to help pay for her share of the real property taxes and upkeep and to

otherwise survive. See as follows:

SRSMP. 39, lines 16-23 (Maribel Hill Testimony)

Q. (By Ms. Lopez) Do you currently have financial stability?

A.No.

Q. The whole life policies, would they have provided you a way to have income?

Q. Do you qualify for a loan currently?

The marital estate paid on the while life policies for 23 years and the policies

were in debt at the time of marriage. (TRV3 P. 49, lines 6 - P. 50, line 10)

Respondent qualifies for spousal maintenance. (SRSM; SCR P. 225-244 & P.

448-523) She was a stay-at-home wife and mother for twenty-three years (TRV3 P.

70, lines 24-25, P. 71, lines 1-7, P. 72, lines 14-15) and now lacks the ability and

health to earn sufficient income to provide for her minimum reasonable needs.

38 (TRV3, P. 31- P. 32, line 14, P. 10, lines 12-16, P. 51, lines 11-16, P. 52, line 25, P.

53 - P. 54, line 17; SME entire transcript, SME P. 9 line, 16 - P. 11, P. 14, lines 6-

25, P. 15 lines 1-25, P. 16, lines 1-21, P. 23, lines 23-25, P. 23, lines 1-3, P. 37, lines

4-20, 24, P. 38 line 1-24; SRSM entire transcript) Respondent, though credentialed,

lost earning capacity by being at home tending to her husband and kids instead of

building her career. While separated and thereafter, Respondent took classes to learn

the new market in real estate, study and retake her exams for her mortgage license

and applied for countless jobs of which she was repeatedly denied employment.

(SCRp. 225-244, 448-523; SRSMtranscript) Respondent, age 55, could only obtain

100% commission jobs in the real estate and mortgage market and sadly has not had

one closing. (SCR p 225-244, 448-523; SRSMtranscript) Respondent had to file for

temporary spousal maintenance pending appeal, and after three settings (SCR P. 1-

4), of which Respondent was turned away from at the Courtroom, on the third try

the motion was finally heard but never ruled on. (CR P. 12) The evidence at trial

showed Respondent did not earn money in any business venture during the marriage.

(TRV3 P. 30 - P. 31, line 15) The estate was kept cash poor (EX A) All whole life

policies that could be borrowed against were given to the husband. (TRV3 P. 95,

lines 21-24) Real property exists that has not sold and costs money to maintain and

a wife/mother, like all human beings, have financial needs to survive. Currently,

Respondent is paying penalties and taxes on the money she is having to pull out to

39 survive from her retirement account. Respondent has applied for countless jobs but

no one will employ her. See as follows:

SRSM P. 37, lines 4-21 (Maribel Hill Testimony)

Q. Why are you asking the Court of Appeals to find you indigent for purposes of appeal?

A. Because I do not have an income, and I have been looking for a job, and I was not awarded any spousal maintenance nor was I awarded half of the business that was created after marriage.

Q. Do you have an income?

A. No.

Q. Do you have access to cash money?

A. I have investments that when I pull out, I have to pay penalty and taxes on.

Q. Is that how you're living today?

Q. How did you pay property taxes?

A. Pulling out money from my retirement.

Q. And, at this point, when will that retirement be exhausted?

A. Within three years.

SRSMP. 38, lines 11- 24 (Maribel Hill Testimony)

Q. Have you done everything that you can to find a job?

40 Q. Are you trying to rehabilitate yourself in the workforce?

Q. Did you take classes to rehabilitate yourself in the workforce?

A. Yes, real estate and mortgage classes.

Q. And who was the primary caregiver of the kids?

A.Me.

Q. And do these kids still come home to stay with you?

A. They live with me.

Respondent deserves the opportunity to transition into independent living

without becoming indigent in the process. Justice is severely compromised when

one spouse is allowed to remain with the entire community property business and

earn$ 35,000 to$ 40,000 per month, while the stay at home mom and wife of 23

years becomes indigent and can't support her reasonable needs because she is no

longer marketable in the workforce. The nature of the property divided was mainly

real property that requires an income to maintain and not lose in a foreclosure. As

already stated, the only liquid money was in the whole life policies and in the income

generated by DHIA. A reasonable and fair minded person would never leave a

nonworking spouse without access to liquid money or award an entire community

business to one spouse. This is an injustice, unreasonable and just plain wrong. Our

legislatures devised Tex. Fam. Code Sec. 8.051, 8.052, 8.053, and 8.054, to help the

41 class of people just like Respondent from becoming indigent as a result of staying at

home to care for the family, instead of building their careers, and then finding

themselves divorced and indigent. Respondent is the very person our legislatures

created these statutes to protect. Respondent qualifies and has complied with all of

the necessary requirements and deserves the protections afforded her under Tex.

Fam. Code Sec. 8.051, 8.052, 8.053, and 8.054. Spousal maintenance should have

been awarded for at least five years.

Respondent prays that this Honorable Court will order the trial Court to award

Respondent$ 5,000.00, per month, as spousal maintenance for five years, which is

only half of what Respondent needs to meet her minimum reasonable needs to

survive and to maintain her real property while she rehabilitates herself in the

workforce.

IV. FOLLOWING A BENCH TRIAL, RESPONDENT TIMELY FILED HER FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW AND HER NOTICE OF PAST DUE FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW. DESPITE AN OBLIGATION TO DO SO, THE TRIAL COURT NEVER MADE FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW.

What was the basis for why the Court awarded the entire community property

business to the husband without an equalization of the value of the business to wife?

What was the basis for why the Court reduced the already earned value of the

extended termination payments to the wife, especially since she thought State Farm·

42 had an "actuarial division"? What was the basis for not awarding ANY spousal

maintenance and ignoring that our legislatures allow up to seven years of spousal

maintenance, Sec. 8.054 (l)(B), to a stay at home wife and mom of twenty-three

(23) years to give her an opportunity to rehabilitate herself in the workforce and not

become homeless at the age of sixty (60)? What was the basis, after hearing that the

wife had not been able to gain employment and had zero income or way to access

money, because the Court depleted her of that, other than to drain her retirement

account, for not awarding any spousal maintenance, even pending appeal?

Findings of fact and conclusions of law would certainly help answer these

questions. Respondent timely filed her request for findings of fact and conclusions

of law. (CR P. 113-118) Respondent timely filed her past due notice for findings of

fact and conclusions of law. (CR P. 164-166) The Court requested Petitioner's

attorney draft her findings of fact and conclusions of law (TRV3 P. 110, lines 1-9)

to which Respondent objected to. (CR P. 186-189) That practice only gives

opposing counsel an opportunity to state what he/she wants a court to determine

and defeats the purpose of receiving FFCL from the Court. Such a practice should

never be allowed in our court system. Nevertheless, the court failed to make her

findings of fact and conclusions of law.

When a trial court has served as the fact finder, the trial court is required to

make findings of fact and conclusions of law following a timely request. Cherne

43 Indus., Inc. V.Magallanes, 163 S.W.2d 768, 772 (Tex. 1989) ("the trial court's duty

to file findings and conclusions is mandatory"); Landerman v. State Bar of Texas,

247 S.W.3d 426, 430 (Tex. App. - Dallas 2008, pet denied) ("When properly

requested, the trial court has a mandatory duty to file findings of fact."); see also

Tex. R. Civ. P. 297 ("The court shall file its findings of fact and conclusions of

law.") Moreover, a trial court's failure to make findings of fact and conclusions of

law is generally presumed harmful. Tenery v. Tenery, 932 S.W. 2d 29, 30 (Tex.

1996); Cherne Indus., Inc. v. Magallanes, 163 S.W.2d 768, 772 (Tex. 1989). The

court should have made findings of fact and conclusions of law and given

Respondent the opportunity to understand how the awards, and lack thereof, raised

in this appeal complied with the laws that Texas has to ensure that a just, right and

fair division of a marital estate ensues while protecting the rights and well-being of

BOTH parties, not just one. This also would have afforded Respondent the

opportunity to request additional findings of fact to clarify any remaining questions.

Tex. R. Civ. P. 298.

V. PRAYER

Respondent prays this Honorable Court will reverse the trial court's judgment

and equalize the division of the community estate by rendering judgment that

Respondent is entitled to $ 364,000, her share of the value of DHIA, to be paid

monthly over the course of three years, render judgment that the value of the

44 extended termination pay be that of$ 6,816.00 to be paid at 31.63% to the wife, as,

if and when received by Petitioner and render judgment that Petitioner is to pay

Respondent$ 5,000 per month for five years in spousal maintenance. Respondent

further prays that this Honorable Court will reverse the trial's court's order requiring

Respondent to sign a Deed of Trust to Secure Assumption, on behalf of Petitioner,

for Respondent's separate property. Alternatively, Respondent prays that this Court

reverse and remand with instructions that the trial court make findings of fact and

conclusions of law, herself, and not allow Petitioner's attorneys to draft such for her.

Respondent also prays for her costs and for all other relief to which she may be

entitled.

Dear Dwight,

Following is a review of your estimated Termination and Extended Termination Payments you requested. Section IV, Paragraph B of the Agent's Agreement reviews the qualifications that must be met in order for Termination Payments to be made. In order for Termination Payments to be made, the Agent's Agreement must be terminated. The agent will return, or make available for return, Company property within 10 days of the termination of the agreement. In addition, the agent agrees to not induce, advise. or solicit any State Farm policyholders in his account at the time of his termination. The agent also agrees to not act or represent himself in any way as an agent or representative of the Companies. Please see Section Ill, Termination of Agreement, of the Agent's Agreement for a more thorough review of Termination provisions.

The following are your estimated monthly Termination and Extended Termination Payments by company assuming a 4/30/2024 termination date. Term payments will be made for 60 months following your termination.

Term Pay Ext Term Pay Auto Voluntary $2,645 $2,645 Auto TCM $19 $0 Fire $198 $193 Lloyds $3,665 $3,636 Fire TCM $125 $125 Health $22 $0 Life $102 $102 Total $6,776 $6,701

IN THE MATTER OF § IN THE DISTRICT COURT THE MARRIAGE OF § § DWIGHT L. HILL § AND § 302ND JUDICIAL DISTRICT MARIBEL L. HILL § § AND IN THE INTEREST OF § J.L.H., A CHILD § DALLAS COUNTY, TEXAS

COUNTERRESPONDENT'S ANSWER TO FOURTH AMENDED ANSWER AND COUNTERPETITION FOR DIVORCE

Dwight L. Hill, Counterrespondent, files this Answer to Maribel L. Hill

(Counterpetitioner)'s Fourth Amended Answer and Counterpetition for Divorce.

1. General Denial

Dwight L. Hill enters a general denial.

2. Information about Child

The child the subject of this suit has attained the age of majority and graduated

from high school since the filing of this suit.

3. No Double Recovery

To the extent that Maribel L. Hill seeks to double recover for tort claims alleged in

her Fourth Amended Answer and Counterpetition and her requests for disproportionate

division of the community estate, Dwight L. Hill objects to such double recovery and

asserts that Maribel L. Hill is estopped from such double recovery under the principles

set forth in Schlueter v. Schlueter, 975 S.W.2d 548 (Tex. 1998). An allegedly wronged

spouse has an adequate remedy for alleged fraud on the community through the means

of a just and right division. Therefore, no independent tort cause of action may be

recovered for regarding any alleged damages to the community estate. Id at 585.

Counterrespondent's Answer to Fourth Amended Answer and Counterpetition for Divorce Page 1 of 3

Page 80 4. Attorney's Fees, Expenses, Costs, and Interest

It was necessary for Dwight L. Hill to secure the services of Robert D. Epstein

and Jordan C. Watson of Epstein Family Law, P.C., along with Richard R. Orsinger and

the law firm of Orsinger, Nelson, Downing & Anderson, licensed attorneys, to prepare

and prosecute this suit. To effect an equitable division of the estate of the parties and

as a part of the division, and for services rendered in connection with conservatorship

and support of the child, judgment for attorney's fees, expenses, and costs through trial

and appeal should be granted against Petitioner and in favor of Dwight L. Hill for the use

and benefit of Dwight L. Hill's attorneys and be ordered paid directly to Dwight L. Hill's

attorneys, who may enforce the judgment in the attorneys' own names. Dwight L. Hill

requests postjudgment interest as allowed by law.

5. Prayer

Dwight L. Hill prays that Maribel L. Hill take nothing and that Dwight L. Hill be

granted all relief requested in this Answer.

Dwight L. Hill also prays for attorney's fees, expenses, costs, and interest as

requested above.

Dwight L. Hill prays for general relief.

Following is a review of your estimated Termination and Extended Termination Payments you requested. Section IV, Paragraph 8 of the Agent's Agreement reviews the qualifications that must be met in order for Termination Payments to be made. In order for Termination Payments to be made, the Agent's Agreement must be terminated. The agent will return, or make available for return, Company property within 10 days of the termination of the agreement. In addition, the agent agrees to not induce, advise, or solicit any State Farm policyholders in his account at the time of his termination. The agent also agrees to not act or represent himself in any way as an agent or representative of the Companies. Please see Section 111, Termination of Agreement, of the Agent's Agreement for a more thorough review of Termination provisions.

The following are your estimated monthly Termination and Extended Termination Payments by company assuming a 5/31/2024 termination date. Term payments will be made for 60 months following your termination.

Term Pay Ext Term Pay Auto Voluntary $2,640 $2,640 Auto TCM $19 $0 Fire $206 $201 Lloyds $3,763 $3,737 Fire TCM $131 $131 Health $22 $0 Life $107 $107 Total $6,888 $6,816

NOTE: Extended Termination pay is available to agents who are 60 years or older with 20 years of service (last 10 continuous). Please remember that if you terminate prior to age 65, your Extended Termination Payments will be actuarially reduced. Extended termination payments are also available for those agents who meet the terms of the Early Notification Program. Under the Early Notification Program, you can qualify for Extended Termination payments at age 55 if (1) you are at least 55 years old, with 20 years of service (last 10 continuous) OR (2) age plus years of service equals 80.

Extended Termination amounts will be actuarially reduced for retirement before age 65. For retirement at age 59 years 7 months, the actuarial factor of 0.6263 reduces your Extended Termination payments to $4,269 a month. If you elect the joint and 2/3 survivor option, the extended term amount would be further adjusted to $3,625 a month. The survivor amount would be $2,417 a month.

NOTE: Life Writing Compensation Payments are based on writing compensation that would have been paid to you if your Agreement had not been terminated. Life Writing Compensation Payments will fluctuate each month depending on premium paid each month following termination and payments are reduced by a decreasing commission scale as business ages and any lapsed/cancelled policies.

NOTE: All figures are estimates. Contract provisions will govern actual amounts.

Attached is the estimate you requested. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please contact an ASR Representative at 1-833-335-0077 and follow the prompts to contracts and compensation.

longer than three years, leased with an option to purchase, or otherwise sold (including

any contract for deed) without Beneficiary's prior written consent, which consent may be

withheld in Beneficiary's sole discretion, Beneficiary may declare a default of this

agreement and seek to foreclose on the property. The creation of a subordinate lien,

any conveyance under threat or order of condemnation, or the passage of title by
