Alita K. Sergi v. Edward Sergi

Appellant and Appellee were married on December 19, 1974 and a divorce granted on September 21, 1983. The present matter came before the Honorable Lawrence W. Kaplan for hearing on the issue of equitable distribution, being the only remaining claim in the parties divorce action. A hearing was held on January 9, 1985 at which time the court set down in narrative form findings and recommendations for distribution and indicated a decree nisi would be entered. The decree nisi was filed January 30, 1985. Following arguments on Appellants exceptions and Appellees petition for post-trial relief, the court entered a final order dismissing Appellants exceptions, granting in part and denying in part Appellees petition for post-trial relief and thereby amending the decree nisi. The decree nisi as amended and made final by the trial courts order was subsequently reduced to the judgment from which this appeal is taken.
