Gatlin v. Gatlin

Mississippi Supreme Court

1Opinion of the Court

PATTERSON, Justice:

This is an appeal by Mrs. Ouida Gatlin from an adverse decree of the Chancery Court of Wayne County. The decree granted Talmadge Gatlin, appellee, a divorce from the appellant, with certain property adjustments, but did not award the appellant alimony.

The contentions on appeal are that the complainant failed to meet the burden of proof since the allegations set out in his bill of complaint were not sufficiently corroborated, that the lower court erred in not granting the appellant a divorce, and also by not providing alimony and the use of the former home.
