The Ohio Court of Appeals has upheld that a husband retains ownership of his pre-marriage house, resisting claims from his ex-wife. The judges clarified that the use of rental income for payments did not affect the house’s classification as separate property. Moreover, the court ordered his ex-spouse to cover $20,000 in legal fees, highlighting the tensions caused by her legal maneuvers throughout their prolonged dispute.
