Dykman v. Dykman

98 Ark.App. 145 (2007)

Facts

H who is 85 is a doctor of psychology and W is a psychiatrist who is 52. W was employed by a consulting firm in Dallas and delivered much of her considerable earnings to H, in amounts up to $12,000 per month, with the express understanding that he would use these funds for marital purposes, such as reduction of debt on the parties' real property. H was planning to divorce W and assume an open relationship with one or more young women, to whom he gave substantial gifts of automobiles, clothing from Victoria's Secret, other gifts paid for with marital assets, and several checks for many thousands of dollars. H was using marital assets to fund his extramarital affairs rather than pay debt on marital property. H forged W's signature to obtain a second mortgage on one of their properties without her knowledge. He also fraudulently forged W's name to tax returns.
