Description
1 Adam L. Brookman appeals from a judgment of divorce awarding family support to Susan M. Vlies. Brookman contends that the circuit courts decision to award family support in lieu of child support and maintenance was improper. He argues that the circuit court did not apply the relevant statutory factors to the facts of the case and therefore erroneously exercised its discretion. We agree and reverse the family support order provision of the judgment, remanding it with directions. Brookman also argues that the court erred when it required him to maintain life insurance for the childrens benefit because it had no authority to do so. We disagree; however, we remand the issue of life insurance coverage for consideration in the context of the courts child support analysis. Finally, Brookman contends that the circuit court erred when it ordered him to contribute to Vliess attorneys fees. We agree and remand the award of attorneys fees for further proceedings.
