LEMELLE v. LEMELLE

No. 85-1064.

497 So.2d 50 (1986)

James Roy LEMELLE, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Hilda LEMELLE, Defendant-Appellant.

Court of Appeal of Louisiana, Third Circuit.

November 5, 1986.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Harold L. Savoie, Lafayette, for defendant-appellant.

James Roy Lemelle, Lafayette, in pro. per.

Before DOMENGEAUX, YELVERTON and KNOLL, JJ.

KNOLL, Judge.

Hilda Lemelle appeals the judgment of the trial court denying her attorney fees in a successful rule to make past due child support executory. We affirm.

LSA-R.S. 9:305 provides that the trial court shall, except for good cause, award attorney fees to the prevailing party in an action to make past due child support executory. Under R.S. 9:305 the trial court is vested with discretion in determining whether attorney fees are to be awarded.
