IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA THIRD APPELLATE DISTRICT (Sacramento) ----

In re the Marriage of MICHAEL and ANNABELLE C080719 KIM.

MICHAEL KIM, (Super. Ct. No. 10FL00288)

Appellant,

v.

ANNABELLE KIM,

Appellant.

Appellant Michael Kim (husband) appeals from an order characterizing and dividing real and personal property. Husband contends the trial court erred in characterizing real property located in the Philippines as the separate property of Annabelle Kim (wife). Husband further contends he should be given credit for money wife removed from a community property account.

The record on appeal does not include a reporter’s transcript of the long cause hearing at which evidence was admitted and arguments made. Accordingly, we treat the appeal as a “judgment roll” appeal. (Allen v. Toten (1985) 172 Cal.App.3d 1079, 1082- 1083; Krueger v. Bank of America (1983) 145 Cal.App.3d 204, 207.) On the face of this record, husband cannot establish error. We affirm. FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND Husband and wife were married on February 2, 2000, and separated on April 11, 2011. On September 4, 2015, the trial court presided over a long cause hearing on issues of characterization and division of real and personal property. On September 8, 2015, the court issued its written decision. As relevant here, the trial court characterized real property located in the Philippines as wife’s separate property and awarded the property to her. Specifically, the court found that title to the property was held in wife’s name and that husband failed to rebut the title presumption by clear and convincing evidence. The trial court also found the parties agreed that the community property “Fidelity Joint Account” had a balance of “approximately $201.” That $201, the court ruled, was to be divided evenly between the parties. Husband appeals from that order. DISCUSSION On appeal, we must presume the trial court’s judgment is correct. (People v. Giordano (2007) 42 Cal.4th 644, 666.) Thus, we must adopt all inferences in favor of the judgment, unless the record expressly contradicts them. (See Brewer v. Simpson (1960) 53 Cal.2d 567, 583.) The party challenging a judgment bears the burden to provide an adequate record to assess claims of error. (Ketchum v. Moses (2001) 24 Cal.4th 1122, 1140-1141.) When an appeal is “on the judgment roll” (Allen v. Toten, supra, 172 Cal.App.3d at pp. 1082- 1083), we must conclusively presume evidence was presented that is sufficient to support the court’s findings. (Ehrler v. Ehrler (1981) 126 Cal.App.3d 147, 154 (Ehrler).) Our
