In re Terry

Louisiana Court of Appeal

1Opinion of the Court

CHEHARDY, Chief Judge.

John Brent Biggers appeals a judgment that recognizes and makes executory a Mississippi divorce decree under which he is liable for child support payments. He contends the judgment of the Louisiana court is invalid because that court had no personal jurisdiction over him.

The divorce decree was rendered by the Chancery Court of Pearl River County, Mississippi, on June 5, 1984. The decree granted custody of the two minor children to Elizabeth C. Biggers (now Elizabeth Big-gers Terry) and ordered John Biggers to pay child support to her in the amount of $350 per month.1
