Abstract

The law pertaining to the division of property at dissolution has undergone substantial change in recent years. This is due primarily to the adoption of principles of equitable distribution. These principles require the courts to define "marital" property and to develop guidelines to determine how and in what proportion such property is to be divided. This Article will survey some of the significant developments in Missouri in this important area of family law.
