Davis v. Henderson
Annotate this CaseThe issue this case presented for the Mississippi Supreme Court's review centered on the temporary termination of a father’s child-support obligation. Because the Court found that the Court of Appeals did not apply the abuse-of-discretion standard of review applicable to the chancery court’s decision regarding the child-support termination, it reversed the decision of the Court of Appeals. The Supreme Court reinstated and affirmed the chancer court's judgment terminating the father’s child-support obligation to one child. However, because the chancellor did not make a new finding on the amount of child support applicable to one child, the case was remanded for further proceedings.
