Martin v. Martin

Hall, Justice.

This appeal is from an order denying a former wife’s prayer for contempt. The trial court had granted a partial *69summary judgment to the appellant which domesticated a South Carolina decree in the amount of $14,825 in alimony installments and $1,500 in attorney fees found to be due by the South Carolina court under its previous award. The South Carolina court refused to invoke its contempt powers at the time it entered its lump sum judgment.
