The husband appealed to the Conrt of Appeals from the support and property division provisions of a decree of dissolntion of marriage. The Conrt of
The wife petitioned for review of the Court of Appeals’ decision. She alleged that subsequent to the trial court decree, but before the Court of Appeals’ decision, the husband had sold the rental house. The husband, therefore, could not comply with the decision of the Court of Appeals. This allegation was supported by affidavits which had previously been filed with the Court of Appeals in connection with a motion to dismiss. The petition for review was also filed with the Court of Appeals and there is considered as a petition for reconsideration. Rule 9.15, Supreme Court and Court of Appeals Rules of Procedure. The Court of Appeals, however, did not reconsider. We granted review to consider this apparent oversight by the Court of Appeals.
We agree with the Court of Appeals that the trial court’s decree must be modified for the reason stated by the Court of Appeals. The complete modification ordered by the Court of Appeals, however, cannot be affirmed. It is admitted that the husband did sell the house. We have been urged to change the details of the modification so as to accomplish the intent of this court and the Court of Appeals. We cannot do so, however, because of insufficient evidence.
For these reasons we direct the Court of Appeals to remand the suit to the trial court. The trial court is to modify its decree to approximate the intention of this court and the Court of Appeals.
Remanded with directions.
