Docket entry

010501 Riggins v. O'Brien 03/01/2002 The Court of Appeals reached the correct result in the appeal of a domestic relations matter in which an award of child support arrearages was made. The decree entered a decade before the present proceedings was valid and, because the parties did not obtain court approval for changes thereto, the trial court correctly imposed an obligation to pay arrearages. The judgment of the Court of Appeals is affirmed.
