Appellant, Rodney J. Yanke appealed from the trial court's decision to enforce a property division agreement. Yanke claimed that he was not given sufficient time to consult his counsel before signing the agreement and that he was forced into signing the contract. The trial court determined that Appellant's testimony regarding the making of the agreement was not credible. The defendant also claimed that the trial court erred in properly classifying and dividing the marital property. On appeal, the court upheld the trial court's enforcement of the agreement and found that Yanke's arguments related to property classification and division were invalid. Shelley Gish filed a cross-appeal arguing that the trial court's finding that the wedding ceremony held in Mexico did not create a valid marriage in the state of Utah. The trial court decision was upheld by the Court of Appeals.
