Marriage of Frankman CA4/3
Anna Frankman appeals from an order denying her motion to set aside the judgment resolving property and support issues in this marital dissolution action. Anna and her former husband, Donald, entered into a mediated marital settlement agreement (MSA), which Anna regretted almost immediately and attempted to withdraw from. However, over Anna’s opposition, the trial court granted Donald’s motion to enter judgment based on the MSA.
After the judgment became final, Anna moved to set it aside, renewing the arguments she had made in opposition to Donald’s motion to enter the judgment. The trial court denied Anna’s motion, finding that while the motion was timely, it amounted to nothing more than a request for reconsideration of the order entering judgment, which was final. The court also noted Anna had failed to establish any of the elements of extrinsic fraud.
