She sought sale and division of proceeds, arguing division of proceeds better served equity. her husband Thiele opposed any division, claiming the home as conjugal residence since 1919 and urging preservation of the family home. The court noted the home and land value details and that sale would not cause serious hardship, while acknowledging Thiele’s evidence of costly furniture provided for their comfort.
