Description
INGRAM, Judge Betsy Claire Fanning and Timothy Charles Fanning were divorced in April 1984. Custody of the parties' two minor children was given to the mother with the father receiving limited visitation rights. In November 1985, the father filed a petition in the Circuit Court of Jefferson County for modification and rule nisi, alleging that the mother was violating the final divorce decree by not allowing visitation called for in the decree. The mother answered the petition and cross-petitioned for rule nisi, claiming her former husband had failed to pay child support. She also cross-claimed for modification of the decree, requesting an increase in child support payments. The trial court denied the father's petition for rule nisi, finding that the mother had been justified in limiting visitation. The court further found that visitation as it existed under the original decree was unworkable and required modification through expansion of visitation rights. The mother's cross-petition for rule nisi and petition for modification were both denied. The mother appeals the decision of the trial court to expand visitation rights, and we affirm.
