Brown v. Brown
Facts:
The appellant husband sought review from an order of the
Circuit Court of Virginia Beach (Virginia), which ordered spousal support in
favor of the appellee wife. The husband asserted that the wife was precluded
from seeking spousal support in a subsequent Virginia proceeding, because the
divorce was obtained in Tennessee.

Holdings:
The
Virginia Court made the following holding:
- Full faith and credit
given a foreign divorce decree extends to property and support rights, as
well as to marital status, where the divorce court had personal
jurisdiction over the parties. However, when a divorce is granted ex parte
the decree is binding only insofar as it terminates the marital status of
the parties. Personal rights, which include property and support rights in
divorce cases, may not be adjudicated by a court lacking in personam
jurisdiction. This time-honored precept has been a recognized procedural
due process requirement of jurisdiction.
- In awarding spousal
support, the trial judge has broad discretion. Appellate courts will not
interfere unless the record shows that some injustice has been done. The
trial judge must consider all the factors enumerated in Code Va. Code Ann.
§ 20-107.1. Consideration entails more than a recitation in the record or
decree that all factors have been considered.
