Facts:
Plaintiff wife appealed from a decree entered by the

Holdings:
The
Virginia Court made the following holding:
- Desertion is a breach of
matrimonial duty, and is composed first, of the actual breaking off of the
matrimonial cohabitation, and, secondly, an intent to desert in the mind
of the offender. Both must combine to make the desertion complete. The
intent to desert is usually the principal thing to be considered.
Obviously a mere separation by mutual consent is not desertion in either.
Nor, as a matter of proof, can desertion be inferred against either from
the mere unaided fact that they do not live together, though protracted
absence, with other circumstances, may establish the original intent. The
courts have not laid down any particular rules of evidence for determining
whether a separation does or does not, as matter of proof, amount to
desertion; and the question does not admit of such rules, but each case
must rest on its own circumstances.

Rodriguez v. Rodriguez
Facts:
In Fairfax, a child support agreement required the
ex-husband pay $ 25 per week child support; the circuit court raised the amount
to $ 50, and then upon the ex-husband's petition the circuit court reduced the
amount to $ 35. The ex-wife petitioned the circuit court for general relief,
alleging that the ex-husband was in arrears in his child support payments. The
ex-wife was awarded judgment in the sum of $ 945, the amount of arrearages. On
appeal, the court reversed and remanded, holding that because the younger child
was still a minor in 1974, the circuit court had the power to order an increase
in payments for his support and subsequently to order a reduction in payments.
The ex-husband conceded that his contractual obligation to pay child support in
the amount of $ 25 per week continued although the younger child had reached
the age of majority. The ex-husband argued only that the divorce court lacked
jurisdiction to enforce the support obligation, as modified. The court held
that where contracts to support the children after their minority were
incorporated into support decrees by a divorce court, they could only be
modified by that court to the extent of its jurisdiction.

Holdings:
The
Virginia Court made the following holding:
- The jurisdiction of a
court to provide for child support pursuant to a divorce is purely
statutory. The relevant statutes only deal with the court's power to provide
for support and maintenance of minor children. Va. Code Ann. §§ 20-103
through -109.1. Once the child reaches majority, the jurisdiction of the
divorce court to provide for his support and maintenance terminates unless
otherwise provided by agreement incorporated into the divorce decree.

Benson v. Benson
Facts:
Defendant wife appealed from a judgment of the Circuit
Court of Fairfax (Virginia), which granted plaintiff husband a divorce from
defendant on the ground of adultery and which denied her spousal support and
awarded child custody and child support to defendant. Defendant contended that
the evidence was insufficient to establish adultery and that an amendment to
add that ground should not have been allowed.

Holdings:
The
Virginia Court made the following holding:
- A fault divorce cannot
be granted merely because a husband and wife are unable to live together
in peace and harmony. While a court's judgment cannot be based upon
speculation, conjecture, surmise, or suspicion, adultery does not have to
be proven beyond all doubt. The evidence must be clear and convincing,
based upon proven facts and reasonable inferences drawn from these facts.
