133 Md. App. 64

Herbert NEWBORN v. Donnie NEWBORN.

Court of Special Appeals of Maryland.

June 29, 2000.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John H. Doud III, Baltimore, for appellant.

Lynn C. Williamson, Baltimore, for appellee.

Argued before SALMON, EYLER and SONNER, JJ.


SALMON, Judge.

If one spouse suffers personal injury prior to separation, do the proceeds from the settlement of that claim constitute marital property? That is one of the questions that must be answered in this case. Surprisingly, there is no reported opinion in Maryland that has decided that issue. In this case, we shall hold that part of the proceeds from the personal injury settlement are marital and part are not.
