{¶ 1} This timely appeal comes for consideration upon the record in the trial court and the parties' briefs. Defendant-Appellant, Herbert Tabor, Jr., appeals from the decision of the Mahoning County Court of Common Pleas, Domestic Relations Division, which granted the Civ.R. 60(B) motion for relief from judgment of Plaintiff-Appellee, Christy Tabor. The issue before this court is whether the trial court properly granted that motion. We conclude Christy failed to demonstrate that her motion was filed in a reasonable time, did not state a basis for relief under Civ.R. 60(B), and did not allege sufficient operative facts to demonstrate a meritorious defense to the divorce decree. Thus, we reverse the trial court's decision to the extent that it modified that decree. However, the trial court may still order a qualified domestic relations order (QDRO) which does not conflict with the divorce decree. Accordingly, this case is remanded to the trial court so it may issue a QDRO in accordance with the divorce decree.
