A court of this state may adjudicate a motion for omitted assets when a court of another state entered the original decree of marital annulment, dissolution, or legal separation and determined the division of property only if the court of the other state that entered the original decree determines it does not have exclusive, continuing jurisdiction or determines a court of this state is a more convenient forum. However, if the omitted asset is real property that lies in this state, a court of this state may adjudicate a motion for omitted assets regardless of whether a court of another state entered the original decree.
