Knox v. Knox

This is an appeal from a contempt citation for failure to pay child support. The parties were divorced and entered into an agreement settling alimony, property rights, child support and child custody. The appellant later sought modification of the child support agreement. At that time the parties discovered that the agreement had been inadvertently omitted from the final divorce decree. The trial court corrected the omission nunc pro tunc on the joint petition of both parties. The petition for modification was denied. The appellee brought the contempt proceeding for past arrearages.
