Petitioner should be allowed credit in an amount of $70,000 as agreed to by the parties (see K12). F. Life Insurance and Retirement Plans Petitioner shall be awarded F1 and F5. Respondent shall be awarded F6, F7 and F8. The evidence shows that prior to trial Petitioner cashed in F2, F3, and F4 which were valued in the total amount of $26,606. Petitioner testified that he used the proceeds from the insurance companies to pay on debts, "Gayle stuff', Mr. Yeagley's attorney fees, Mr. Brock's attorney fees, loan on the business, and bills that were past due on the business. Additionally, Exhibit 23, Darick Barnhart's individual tax return, reflects on Line 16A that of the total of $26,604, $9,157 is subject to income tax liability. The evidence also reflects that Mr. Yeagley was owed temporary attorney fees of $5,000 by October 1, 1999. The Court has assumed that attorney fees to Mr. Brock and Mr. Yeagley should be allowed in equal amounts of $5,000 and that income tax liability shall be credited in the amount of $3,000, thus leaving $13,602 as part of the marital estate. Although Petitioner claims that it was used to pay debts, "Gayle stuff', loans on the business, and bills that were past due, no documentation was provided and no amounts specified. Thus, for purposes of including these amounts in the marital estate, the sum of $13,602 was used. G.
