The appellate court reversed, determining that the trial court's judgment granting the motion constituted an improper modification of the judgment of dissolution. The Supreme Court reversed, holding that the trial court properly clarified ambiguity in the judgment rather than impermissibly modified or altered the substantive terms of the judgment. Remanded.
