17                                 MEMORANDUM OPINION

18 VANZI, Chief Judge.
 1   {1}   Petitioner Gary Chavarria appeals following the district court’s entry of a

 2 divorce decree and the denial of three motions for reconsideration. On appeal,

 3 Petitioner contends (1) his refusal to sign the marital settlement agreement rendered

 4 the agreement unenforceable, and (2) the district court erred in its application of Rule

 5 1-060(B) NMRA. This Court issued a notice of proposed disposition, proposing to

 6 affirm. Petitioner has filed a memorandum in opposition, which we have duly

 7 considered. Unpersuaded, we affirm.

 8   {2}   In this Court’s calendar notice, we proposed that a number of the issues

 9 Petitioner raised were not properly before this Court. We further proposed that, to the

10 extent Petitioner was contending that the district court’s order was void because

11 Petitioner did not sign a marital settlement agreement, the case law Petitioner relied

12 on did not support that conclusion. Specifically, we noted that Herrera v. Herrera,

13 1999-NMCA-034, ¶ 17, 126 N.M. 705, 974 P.2d 675, supports the proposition that

14 a signature on marital settlement documents is not required where the agreement is

15 judicially supervised.

16   {3}   In response, Petitioner continues to argue that his signature is required and that,

17 absent his signature, the agreement does not satisfy NMSA 1978, Section 40-2-4

18 (1907). Petitioner does not, however, address the fact that there was a trial and a

19 presentment hearing and that the district court heard testimony and made findings

20 regarding the agreement. See Herrera, 1999-NMCA-034, ¶ 13 (stating that “[w]hat

                                                2
 1 does prove the existence and therefore enforceability of the [marital settlement

 2 agreement] is the testimony given to the trial court”). Because Petitioner has not

 3 addressed the specific testimony that was introduced or how that testimony was

 4 insufficient to establish that an agreement existed, we conclude that Petitioner has not

 5 satisfied his burden on appeal of overcoming the presumption of correctness in the

 6 district court’s rulings. See Farmers, Inc. v. Dal Mach. & Fabricating, Inc., 1990-

 7 NMSC-100, ¶ 8, 111 N.M. 6, 800 P.2d 1063 (“The presumption upon review favors

 8 the correctness of the trial court’s actions. Appellant must affirmatively demonstrate

 9 its assertion of error.”); Hennessy v. Duryea, 1998-NMCA-036, ¶ 24, 124 N.M. 754,

10 955 P.2d 683 (“Our courts have repeatedly held that, in summary calendar cases, the

11 burden is on the party opposing the proposed disposition to clearly point out errors in

12 fact or law.”).

13   {4}   Thus, we conclude that Petitioner has not demonstrated that the district court

14 abused its discretion in denying Petitioner’s request for relief. Accordingly, we affirm.

15   {5}   IT IS SO ORDERED.
