Bonita J. LYNCH, Petitioner-Appellee, v. Donna L. LYNCH, Personal Representative of the Estate of Michael S. Lynch, Respondent-Appellant.

Court of Appeals of Arizona, Division 1, Department D.

OPINION

FIDEL, Judge.

A man who won the lottery before the pending dissolution of his marriage seeks to reverse the trial court's grant of half his winnings to his wife. We hold that the winnings were community property and affirm. In the course of our decision, we reexamine the "will to union" doctrine of In re Marriage of Fong, 121 Ariz. 298, 589 P.2d 1330 (App. 1978).
