Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Ochsner & Baughman, Frank J. Baughman, Amarillo, for appellant.

Jack Hazlewood, Amarillo, for appellee.


REYNOLDS, Justice.

The single question presented in this appeal from a default divorce decree is whether pleadings of specific delimitation of the estate of the parties to be divided will support a judgment making a division of the defaulting party's separate property not embraced within the pleadings. The question requires a negative answer. Affirmed in part; reversed and remanded in part.
