Bogert v. Bogert, Unpublished Decision (4-29-2005)
Bogert v. Bogert, Unpublished Decision (4-29-2005)
Opinion of the Court
{¶ 2} Civ.R. 75(F) provides that until issues of property division, child support, spousal support, and allocation of parental rights and responsibilities have been addressed, there is no final appealable order in a divorce action. The only exception would be when the court includes Civ.R. 54(B) language and either the court lacks jurisdiction to determine such issues or, in a legal separation action, the division of the property of the parties would be inappropriate at that time.
{¶ 3} In the present case, the trial court has yet to issue a final divorce decree, and the only exception set forth in Civ.R. 75(F) is inapplicable.
{¶ 4} Based upon the foregoing analysis, this appeal is hereby sua sponte dismissed for lack of a final appealable order.
Appeal dismissed.
Ford, P.J., O'Neill, J., concur.
