SIMMS, Justice:
Certified Question of Law from the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma.
The trial court certified the following question to this Court pursuant to the Oklahoma Uniform Certification of Questions of Law Act, 20 O.S.1991, § 1601, et seq.:
“Whether a divorce decree which specifically did not award support alimony may be modified to award alimony?”
We hold that the divorce decree and property division ordered by the district court in this case is not one proper for modification of support alimony as no alimony was awarded. The facts follow.
