Gilroy v. Gilroy CA2/3
Timothy Alan Gilroy (Tim) and Julia Yoni Stone Gilroy had a long-term relationship, but they were never legally married. When the relationship ended, they sued each other to, in essence, settle their property rights. After a bench trial, the court awarded Julia the house the parties had lived in, immediate cash payments from Tim’s retirement accounts, and an additional $5,420 which had been previously awarded to Julia. Tim appeals, contending that the court should have divided assets according to the Family Code; that the court erred by ordering him to pay Julia from his retirement account; and that the $5,420 award was improper. We agree only that the court’s order regarding Tim’s retirement account was erroneous. Accordingly, we modify the judgment and affirm it as modified.
