Lawman v. Lawman
Facts:

            Appellant husband challenged a final decree from the Circuit Court of Richmond (Virginia), which awarded appellee wife a divorce on the ground of cruelty, the marital home and automobile, custody of the children, and child support. The circuit court also modified its pendente lite support order based on a change in the wife's circumstances, requiring the husband to make the mortgage payment.

Holdings:

            The Virginia Court made the following holding:

  • The decision whether to grant a continuance is a matter within the sound discretion of a trial court. Abuse of discretion and prejudice to the complaining party are essential to reversal. In considering a request for a continuance, a court is to consider all the circumstances of the case.
  • A divorce cannot be granted on the uncorroborated testimony of the parties or either of them. Va. Code Ann. § 20-99(1). The rule is that where a particular fact or circumstance is vital to complainant's case, some evidence of the same, in addition to complainant's own testimony, is essential.
  • In custody disputes the welfare of the children is of primary and paramount importance. In determining the best interests of the children, a court must consider all the evidence and facts before it. A trial court's decision, when based upon an ore tenus hearing, is entitled to great weight and is not disturbed unless plainly wrong or without evidence to support it.
