Evans v. Evans

West Virginia Supreme Court

Decided November 14, 2006No. 33045Published

1Opinion of the Court

STARCHER, J.:

In this appeal from the Circuit Court of Logan County, we are asked to review a circuit court’s decision that reversed on appeal an order by the Family Court of Logan County. The family court order terminated a “permanent” spousal support obligation imposed in a prior family court divorce order, because the recipient of the spousal support had remarried. The circuit court’s decision re-imposed the spousal support obligation.

After careful review of the record and the arguments of the parties, we reverse the circuit court’s decision.
