Frank McCourt expected to testify in divorce case


LOS ANGELES (AP) — Frank McCourt is expected to testify as early as Tuesday in a divorce case where he and his estranged wife are fighting over who owns the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Attorneys for Frank and Jamie McCourt fired off their best salvos during their opening statements on Monday, giving conflicting accounts of what the couple intended when they signed a postnuptial marital agreement in March 2004.

Frank McCourt believes the pact gives him sole ownership of the storied franchise. Jamie McCourt contends the agreement should be thrown out and those assets should be split evenly under California's community property law.

Superior Court Judge Scott Gordon will decide if the 10–page document is valid.
