|
|
| **Marriage Date** | December 28, 2021 |
|
|
| **Divorce Date** | January 29, 2026 |

|
| **Duration** | 4 years, 1 month |

|
## Summary
|
|
|
|
Assess the financial impact of divorce based on prenuptial agreement terms. Gather historical (Dec 2021) and current (Jan 2026) financial data to calculate property division per prenup Section 8.
|
|
|
|
## Prenup Key Provisions (Section 8 - Dissolution)
|
|
|
|
| Provision | Rule |
|
|
|-----------|------|
|
|
| **8a. Property acquired during marriage** | Equal interest (50/50), except appreciation of pre-marital assets |
|
|
| **8b. Homestead appreciation** | Proportionate to contributions (monetary + in-kind household/childcare) |
|
|
| **8c. Pre-marital assets** | Remain separate, including appreciation, income, reinvestment |
|
|
| **8d. Joint accounts** | Divided equally |
|
|
| **8e. Tax liability** | Pro-rata based on data causing the result |
|
|
| **Section 9. Support/Alimony** | Waived by both parties |
|
|
|
|
## Eric's Pre-Marital Baseline (Exhibit A - Dec 2021)
|
|
|
|
These remain Eric's separate property including all appreciation:

## Data Gathering Plan
|
|
|
|
### Phase 1: Historical Statements (Dec 2021 / Jan 2022)
|
|
|
|
Need baseline values at time of marriage to verify Exhibit A/B accuracy:
|
|
|
|
| Institution | Account Type | Statement Needed |
|
|
|-------------|--------------|------------------|
|
|
| First Tech | Checking | Dec 2021 |
|
|
| Etrade | Brokerage | Dec 2021 |
|
|
| Betterment | IRA | Dec 2021 |
|
|
| Vanguard | 401k | Dec 2021 |
|
|
| Mortgage Servicer | 3736 Everett | Dec 2021 balance |
|
|
| Mortgage Servicer | 2319 Ankeny | Dec 2021 balance |
|
|
|
|
### Phase 2: Current Statements (Jan 2026)
|
|
|
|
| Institution | Account Type | Data Needed |
|
|
|-------------|--------------|-------------|
|
|
| First Tech | Checking | Current balance |
|
|
| Etrade | Brokerage | Current holdings + value |
|
|
| Betterment | IRA | Current balance |
|
|
| Vanguard | 401k | Current balance |
|
|
| Mortgage Servicer | 3736 Everett | Current balance |
|
|
| Mortgage Servicer | 2319 Ankeny | Current balance |
|
|
| Joint Account | Checking (33% contributions) | Current balance |
|
|
| Crypto Exchange | Solana holdings | Current value |
|
|
|
|
### Phase 3: Additional Data Needed
|
|
|
|
| Item | Purpose |
|
|
|------|---------|
|
|
| Real estate appraisals | Current market value of both properties |
|
|
| Homestead determination | Which property is "homestead" per 8b? |
|
|
| Contribution records | Joint account deposits by each party |
|
|
| Income history | Both parties' W-2s/1099s 2022-2025 |
|
|
| Property purchased during marriage | Any new assets bought with marital funds |
|
|
| Kelli's current accounts | Any accounts opened during marriage |
|
|
|
|
## Calculation Framework
|
|
|
|
### 1. Separate Property (No Division)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Eric's Separate = Pre-marital assets + appreciation
|
|
- Real estate (current value - current mortgage)
|
|
- Retirement accounts (Betterment IRA, Vanguard 401k)
|
|
- Brokerage (Etrade)
|
|
- Crypto (Solana)
|
|
- Outstanding loans receivable
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Joint Property (50/50 Split)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Joint = Property acquired during marriage with joint funds
|
|
- Joint checking account balance
|
|
- Any jointly titled assets
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Homestead Appreciation (Proportionate)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
If homestead = 3736 Everett:
|
|
Appreciation = Current Value - $410,000
|
|
|
|
Eric's Share = Appreciation * (Eric's contribution ratio)
|
|
Kelli's Share = Appreciation * (Kelli's contribution ratio)
|
|
|
|
Contribution ratio based on:
|
|
- Monetary contributions to household expenses
|
|
- In-kind contributions (childcare, household duties)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 4. Property Acquired During Marriage (50/50)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Per Section 8a:
|
|
- Property bought by either party during marriage
|
|
- Excludes appreciation of pre-marital assets
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
### ⚠️ CRITICAL FINDING: New Property Acquired During Marriage
|
|
|
|
The property at **2619 56TH ST S** with mortgage serviced by Cenlar FSB was **NOT listed in the prenuptial agreement** (Exhibit A listed only 3736 Everett and 2319 Ankeny).
|
|
|
|
This property was acquired **during the marriage** (loan originated July 2022, after Dec 2021 marriage date).
|
|
|
|
**Per Section 8a**: Property acquired during marriage = **Equal interest (50/50)**, except appreciation of pre-marital assets.
|
|
|
|
**Action needed**:
|
|
1. Determine current market value of 2619 56TH ST S
|
|
2. Calculate equity: Market Value - $521,030.51 mortgage = Equity
|
|
3. Equity is subject to 50/50 split

## Data Gathered - 3736 Everett Sale (Completed)
|
|
|
|
**Source**: Closing Statement dated 7/3/2023
|
|
|
|
| Item | Value |
|
|
|------|-------|
|
|
| Property | 3736 NE Everett Street, Camas, WA |
|
|
| Sale Date | July 3, 2023 |
|
|
| Sale Price | $410,000.00 |
|
|
| Prenup Baseline (Dec 2021) | $410,000.00 |
|
|
| **Appreciation** | **$0** |
|
|
| Mortgage Payoff | $237,294.88 |
|
|
| Closing Costs/Fees | $5,743.69 |
|
|
| **Net Proceeds to Eric** | **$166,961.43** |
|
|
|
|
### Section 8b Analysis (Homestead Appreciation)
|
|
|
|
The homestead sold for **exactly the prenup baseline value** ($410,000). Per Section 8b, Kelli would be entitled to a proportionate share of appreciation based on contributions.
|
|
|
|
**Appreciation = $0 → Kelli's share of homestead appreciation = $0**
|
|
|
|
The $166,961.43 net proceeds are Eric's separate property (return of pre-marital equity).
|
|
|
|
**Note**: At time of sale, Eric's address was 2619 56th St S, Gulfport, FL - confirming 2619 56TH ST S was purchased before 3736 Everett was sold.

|
|
| Other Closing Costs | $21,293.02 |
|
|
| **Net Proceeds to Eric** | **$206,146.10** |
|
|
|
|
### Section 8c Analysis (Pre-Marital Asset - NOT Homestead)
|
|
|
|
This property was sold **5 weeks after the marriage** (married Dec 28, 2021; sold Feb 3, 2022).
|
|
|
|
Per Section 8c, pre-marital assets remain separate property **including appreciation, income, and reinvestment**. This was NOT the homestead (that was 3736 Everett), so Section 8b does not apply.
|
|
|
|
**Result**: The $40,000 appreciation and $206,146.10 net proceeds are **Eric's separate property**. Kelli has no claim.

## Data Gathered - Etrade/Spotify Stock Plan (Completed - CORRECTED)
|
|
|
|
**Source**: Etrade Stock Plan Tax Documents (2021, 2023, 2024), 2016 Spotify Benefits Summary, Spotify Share Register (Folio 1780)
|
|
|
|
The prenup Exhibit A listed only **$4,259** in Etrade stocks. However, the actual Spotify stock plan activity was significantly larger. Eric had multiple stock option and RSU grants.
|
|
|
|
### CRITICAL CORRECTION: Grant Dates vs. Vesting Dates
|
|
|
|
The 1099-B "Date Acquired" shows **vesting dates** (when shares became Eric's property), NOT **grant dates** (when Spotify awarded the options/RSUs). Per Section 8c, the **grant date** determines whether stock is pre-marital property.
|
|
|
|
**Evidence of Pre-Marital Employment & Grants:**
|
|
- 2016 Spotify USA Benefits Summary confirms Eric was employed at Spotify in 2016
|
|
- Spotify Share Register (Folio 1780) shows shares inscribed **July 27, 2017**
|
|
- Eric left Spotify in 2023, so no new grants could have been awarded that year
|
|
|
|

### Section 8c Analysis (CORRECTED)
|
|
|
|
**ALL Spotify stock grants were awarded BEFORE December 28, 2021.** Per Section 8c, pre-marital assets remain separate property "including appreciation, income, and reinvestment."

The fact that shares vested or were exercised during the marriage does NOT make them marital property. The **grant date** (when Spotify awarded the options/RSUs) determines classification, not the vesting or exercise date.
|
|
|
|
**Supporting Evidence:**
|
|
- 2016 Spotify USA Benefits Summary confirms Eric's employment at Spotify in 2016
|
|
- Spotify Share Register (Folio 1780) shows shares inscribed July 27, 2017
|
|
- Eric left Spotify in 2023; no new grants could have been awarded that year
|
|
- Grant MM006808 was awarded pre-marriage; only vesting occurred during marriage
|
|
|
|
**UBS Brokerage ($246,011.81):** This account contains proceeds from pre-marital Spotify stock grants. Per Section 8c, this is **Eric's separate property**.
|
|
|
|
**Kelli's share of Spotify stock proceeds: $0**

### Section 8c Analysis (Pre-Marital Crypto)
|
|
|
|
The prenup listed Solana at **$124,458** (Dec 2021). All Solana was sold during the marriage:
|
|
- Total proceeds: ~$24,064 (significant loss from $124,458 baseline)
|
|
- Per Section 8c, pre-marital assets remain separate property including appreciation (or depreciation)
|
|
- The sale proceeds and current $75.85 balance are **Eric's separate property**
|
|
|
|
**Note**: The Jan 12, 2022 sale (100 SOL for $15,104.97) occurred just 2 weeks after marriage - confirming this was pre-marital Solana.

### Down Payment Tracing Analysis - CONFIRMED

The down payment tracing has been **conclusively documented** via bank statements:

|
|
| Jul 31, 2022 | First Tech checking balance after purchase | $30,547.34 | First Tech Jul 2022 Statement |
|
|
|
|
**Tracing Chain Established:**
|
|
1. Ankeny sale proceeds ($197,553.53) deposited to First Tech on Feb 7, 2022
|
|
2. Funds remained in First Tech account (balance $171,451.38 in July)
|
|
3. Down payment wired to FIDELITY NATIONAL TITLE OF FLORIDA on Jul 12, 2022
|
|
4. Account balance dropped to $30,547.34 after wire
|
|
|
|
**Legal Analysis (Section 8c):**
|
|
Per Section 8c, pre-marital assets remain separate property **including reinvestment**. The Ankeny property was pre-marital, and its sale proceeds were directly reinvested into 2619 56TH ST S as the down payment.
|
|
|
|
**Result**: The down payment portion of 2619 56TH ST S equity is **Eric's separate property**. Since the current equity ($52,069.49) is LESS than the original down payment (~$140,000+), there is NO marital equity in this property.
|
|
|
|
**Kelli's share of 2619 56TH ST S: $0**
|
|
|
|

## FINAL FINANCIAL IMPACT SUMMARY
|
|
|
|
### Eric's Separate Property (No Division - Section 8c)
|
|
|
|
| Asset | Current Value | Notes |
|
|
|-------|---------------|-------|
|
|
| UBS Rollover IRA | $260,276.43 | From Vanguard 401k ($129,849 baseline) |
|
|
| **UBS Brokerage** | **$246,011.81** | **From pre-marital Spotify stock grants** |
|
|
| First Tech Checking | $9,291.51 | Pre-marital ($34,199 baseline) |
|
|
| First Tech Savings | $311.31 | |
|
|
| Coinbase Cash | $75.85 | Solana sold ($124,458 baseline) |
|
|
| Vehicles | ~$10,000 | Per Exhibit A |
|
|
| **2619 56TH ST S Equity** | **$52,069.49** | **Down payment traced from Ankeny proceeds** |
|
|
| Chubby Bunny Loan | $75,000 | Receivable - **CONFIRMED OUTSTANDING** |
|
|
| **Total Separate** | **$653,036.40** | |
|
|
|
|
**CORRECTED - UBS Brokerage is SEPARATE PROPERTY**: All Spotify stock grants (including MM006808) were awarded BEFORE December 28, 2021. Per Section 8c, pre-marital assets remain separate property including appreciation and reinvestment. Evidence: 2016 Spotify Benefits Summary, July 2017 Share Register, Eric left Spotify in 2023 (no new grants possible).
|
|
|
|
**Note on Real Estate Proceeds**: The 3736 Everett ($166,961.43) and 2319 Ankeny ($206,146.10) sale proceeds are NOT listed separately because they were **reinvested into 2619 56TH ST S**. The current equity ($52,069.49) represents what remains of those funds - counting both would be double-counting.
|
|
|
|
**Note on Kelli Loan**: The $20,000 Kelli Personal Loan is listed separately below as an offset against her settlement share.
|
|
|
|
**Omitted**: Sheepish Productions LLC (Chase Business $2,173.67) - jointly owned, minimal value, omitted by agreement.
|
|
|
|
### Joint/Marital Property (50/50 Split - Sections 8a & 8d)
|
|
|
|
| Asset | Total Value | Eric's Share | Kelli's Share |
|
|
|-------|-------------|--------------|---------------|
|
|
| Chase Joint Checking | $6,951.12 | $3,475.56 | $3,475.56 |
|
|
| ADP 401k (new employer) | $26,646.91 | $13,323.46 | $13,323.46 |
|
|
| ~~UBS Brokerage~~ | ~~$246,011.81~~ | ~~$123,005.91~~ | ~~$123,005.91~~ |
|
|
| ~~2619 56TH ST S Equity~~ | ~~$52,069.49~~ | ~~$26,034.75~~ | ~~$26,034.75~~ |
|
|
| **Total Joint** | **$33,598.03** | **$16,799.02** | **$16,799.02** |
|
|
|
|
**Notes**:
|
|
- 2619 56TH ST S equity is **NOT joint property**. Down payment tracing CONFIRMED via First Tech bank statements (Ankeny proceeds → title company wire). Since current equity < down payment, 100% is Eric's separate property.
|
|
- **UBS Brokerage is NOT joint property (CORRECTED)**. All Spotify grants (including MM006808) were awarded before marriage. Per Section 8c, pre-marital assets remain separate property regardless of when vested or exercised.
|
|
|
|
### Homestead Appreciation (Section 8b)
|
|
|
|
| Item | Value |
|
|
|------|-------|
|
|
| 3736 Everett Sale Price | $410,000 |

|
|
| **Appreciation** | **$0** |
|
|
| **Kelli's Share** | **$0** |

|
|
|
### Settlement Calculation (FINAL - With Confirmed Down Payment Tracing)
|
|
|
|
**Down payment tracing has been CONFIRMED via First Tech bank statements.**
|
|
|
|
The Ankeny sale proceeds ($197,553.53) were deposited Feb 7, 2022 and wired to FIDELITY NATIONAL TITLE OF FLORIDA on Jul 12, 2022 for the 2619 56TH ST S purchase. Since the current equity ($52,069.49) is less than the original down payment, **100% of the home equity is Eric's separate property**.
|
|
|
|
**Joint/Marital Property (50/50 Split):**

|
|
**FINAL SETTLEMENT (Before Loan Offset):**
|
|
|
|
| Party | Calculation | Total |
|
|
|-------|-------------|-------|
|
|
| **Eric** | $653,036.40 (separate) + $16,799.02 (joint share) | **$669,835.42** |
|
|
| **Kelli** | $16,799.02 (joint share only) | **$16,799.02** |
|
|
|
|
**FINAL SETTLEMENT (With $20,000 Kelli Loan Offset):**
|
|
|
|
| Party | Calculation | Total |
|
|
|-------|-------------|-------|
|
|
| **Eric** | $669,835.42 + $20,000 (loan repayment) | **$689,835.42** |
|
|
| **Kelli** | $16,799.02 - $20,000 (loan owed to Eric) | **-$3,200.98** |
|
|
|
|
**Note on Negative Balance**: Kelli owes Eric $20,000 from pre-marital loan, but her share of marital property is only $16,799.02. This means Kelli still owes Eric $3,200.98 after the settlement.
|
|
|
|
**Verification**: $653,036.40 (separate) + $33,598.03 (joint) = $686,634.43 ✓

|
| Item | Impact |
|
|
|------|--------|
|
|
| ~~Down payment tracing for 2619 56TH ST S~~ | **RESOLVED: Confirmed via bank statements** |
|
|
| ~~Chubby Bunny Loan status ($75k)~~ | **CONFIRMED: Outstanding - Eric's separate property** |
|
|
| ~~Kelli Personal Loan status ($20k)~~ | **CONFIRMED: Outstanding - Kelli owes Eric $20,000** |
|
|
| Kelli's assets acquired during marriage | May increase joint pool |
|
|
| Alimony | **Waived** per Section 9 |
|
|
|
|
### Kelli Personal Loan Offset Analysis
|
|
|
|
Per Exhibit A, Eric loaned Kelli $20,000 before the marriage. This loan remains **outstanding and unpaid**.
|
|
|
|
This is Eric's separate property (a receivable). In the divorce settlement, this debt can be:
|
|
1. **Offset against Kelli's share** - Reduce her $141,889.53 by $20,000 = Kelli receives $121,889.53
|
|
2. **Collected separately** - Kelli pays Eric $20,000 plus receives her $141,889.53
|
|
|
|
**Net Settlement with Offset:**
|
|
|
|
| Party | Calculation | Net |
|
|
|-------|-------------|-----|
|
|
| Eric | $653,036.40 (separate) + $16,799.02 (joint) + $20,000 (loan repayment) | **$689,835.42** |
|
|
| Kelli | $16,799.02 (joint) - $20,000 (loan owed) | **-$3,200.98** |
|
|
|
|
**Total**: $686,634.44 (matches total current assets)
|
|
|
|
**Settlement Outcome**: Kelli owes Eric $3,200.98. Alternatively, Eric can forgive the remaining loan balance and call it even.
