COURT OF APPEALS

AMBER ELIZABETH ADAMS, UNPUBLISHED December 6, 2018 Plaintiff-Appellant, v No. 343170 Wayne Circuit Court STEPHEN CHARLES ADAMS, II, LC No. 17-101934-DM Defendant-Appellee.

Before: SHAPIRO, P.J., and CAVANAGH and K. F. KELLY, JJ.

SHAPIRO, P.J. (concurring).

In addition to remanding for findings on the best-interest factors, I would remand also for findings as to spousal support. As the majority notes, the trial court denied spousal support without explanation.1 Without such findings, I do not think we can find that the decision was fair and equitable. In all other respects, I concur with my colleagues.

/s/ Douglas B. Shapiro

1 It also appears that the trial court likely erred by ordering that spousal support would be nonmodifiable, but this aspect of the judgment of divorce was not challenged on appeal.
