Opinion of the Court

DANAHY, Acting Chief Judge.

In this appeal from a final judgment of dissolution of marriage, the husband argues that the trial court erred in dismissing the husband’s counterpetition for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.

We believe the trial court did have subject matter jurisdiction to consider the counter-petition and erred in entering the order of dismissal. Accordingly, we reverse and remand for further proceedings.

SCHOONOVER and WHATLEY, JJ., concur.
