EXCELLENT TRIAL RESULT IN HIGH ASSET DIVORCE CASE
June 30, 2023
At the conclusion of a bench trial in April 2020, a Utah judge found in favor of Peck Baxter’s client who was the petitioner in a divorce case where multiple assets of high value, including interest in multiple businesses and properties, were at issue. After the conclusion of the trial, the Respondent filed an appeal. In February 2023, the Utah Court of Appeals issued its Opinion in Knowlton v. Knowlton (Case No. 20200483-CA), affirming the decision of the trial court. The Respondent requested that the Utah Supreme Court review the appellate ruling, and in June of 2023, the Supreme Court declined, bringing the case to finality. Shawn P. Bailey and Shaun L Peck represented the Petitioner at trial, and Shawn P. Bailey successfully represented the Petitioner on appeal.
