Text: David next argues that the district court erred in its division of property and assets. The court awarded each party the personal property in his or her possession, and it awarded certain real estate and a van to David. David was also directed to deliver certain property to Michele as requested in her letter to the court. The record before us makes it impossible to determine the method used by the district court to arrive at the property division. David testified at the hearing concerning debts and the responsibility for them, but Michele did not appear. The court may have considered letters and other information sent to it by Michele. The journal entry indicates that a letter from Michele was marked as an exhibit. Exhibit 3, which was filed on May 11, 2001, states that it includes copies of various documents to support Michele's requests related to the division of property, but the documents are not included in the bill of exceptions. The court noted at the end of the hearing that other materials had been included with the letters, but the court had not looked at them. We are unable to determine whether the district court abused its discretion in the division of property. David complains that the exhibits were marked by the court but not received into evidence and that he would have objected to their offer if given the opportunity. This error has not been assigned, and therefore, we do not address it.
