Answer to Question 1

The division of marital property varies by state. However, most states are looking to be sure that each spouse has some property rights from the accumulation of funds and property during the marriage. In a community property state, Mrs. Wendt would be entitled to one-half of the marital property. The spousal support during education has traditionally not netted spouses much in terms of property divisions.

Answer to Question 2

D
