Description
Appellant, Roemont Johnson, appeals from the trial courts order holding him in contempt for failure to pay child support and granting a judgment of $14,400 in favor of appellee, Donna J. Pettigrew. Johnson assigns two points of error: 1) the trial court lacked jurisdiction to hear the motion for contempt, the motion for judgment on arrearage, and the motion to modify; and 2) the trial court lacked jurisdiction to modify an order of another court that had exclusive, original jurisdiction over the parties and the subject matter. For the reasons discussed below, we reverse the trial courts judgment and remand the cause to the 15th District Court with instructions that this cause be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
