Lawson v. Lawson
Court of Civil Appeals of Alabama
1Opinion of the Court
HOLMES, Judge.
This is a divorce case.
After an ore terms hearing the trial court divorced the parties and made an award of periodic alimony to the husband. Additionally, a division of the marital property was effectuated.
The wife appeals, contending that the trial court erred in its award to the husband. We affirm.
The issue presented is whether the trial court abused its discretion in determining alimony and property division. These matters are within the sound discretion of the trial court, whose decision will not be disturbed unless plainly and palpably wrong. Phillips v. Phillips, 489 So.2d…
