Lessenger v. Lessenger

Plaintiff prayed for and was awarded a decree of divorce but on her appeal complains of the amounts allowed as lump sum alimony or property division and for child support. No attack is made on the provisions of the decree granting her a divorce and custody of the parties’ six-year-old daughter. Defendant has not cross-appealed.
