Granted Appeal Summary

 

Case

 

JAMES DAVID EVERETT, II v. KATHRYN JEAN TAWES (Record Number 181238)

 

From 

 

The Court of Appeals of Virginia.

 

Counsel

 

Robert L. Harris, Jr. (Barnes & Diehl, P.C.) for appellant.

 

Player B. Michelsen (Batzli, Stiles, & Butler, PC) for appellee.

 

Assignments of Error

 

  1. The court of appeals erred by declaring that a pendente lite spousal support order is a final judgment, effectively resulting in denial to Everett of a right of appeal.

 

  1. The trial court erred when it failed to modify retroactively the pendente lite spousal support award, declared that an arrearage exists, and entered judgment on the arrearage after declaring that the spousal support award is an injustice.
