McSWEENEY v. McSWEENEY

No. 91-601.

618 A.2d 1332 (1992)

Susan McSWEENEY v. Douglas McSWEENEY.

Supreme Court of Vermont.

November 12, 1992.


In this appeal, we must decide whether the Legislature intended that nonattorney employees of the office of child support (OCS) prosecute URESA cases on behalf of state's attorneys. A magistrate and a reviewing trial court held that it did not. We agree and affirm.

We resolve this question by analyzing two statutory schemes: chapter 10 of Title 4, creating the family court, and chapter 7 of Title 15, facilitating reciprocal enforcement of child support (URESA).
