Marshall, Justice.

L. 1958, pp. 204, 205; 1977, pp. 619, 620) and following a hearing which neither the appellant father nor his attorney attended, the trial court awarded the appellee mother permanent child support for one of the parties’ two children, permanent custody of which child had been awarded her in a modification of the divorce decree.
In his appeal from the award of the permanent child support, the father contends that the statutory basis for such an award has been held to be unconstitutional. See Orr v. Orr, — U. S. — (99 SC 1102, 59 LE2d 306)…
