IN RE MARRIAGE OF RATHE

No. 93-508.

521 N.W.2d 748 (1994)

In re the MARRIAGE OF Delores Elaine RATHE and Danny Lee Rathe. Upon the Petition of Delores Elaine Rathe, Appellant, And Concerning Danny Lee Rathe, Appellee.

Supreme Court of Iowa.

September 21, 1994.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Craig H. Lane of Craig H. Lane, P.C., Sioux City, for appellant.

Danny Lee Rathe, Parkersburg, pro se.

Considered by McGIVERIN, C.J., and HARRIS, LAVORATO, NEUMAN, and TERNUS, JJ.

HARRIS, Justice.

Does the district court sitting in Woodbury County hold the power to enforce, by contempt, a support order entered in district court in Black Hawk County? The trial court thought not, and we agree.

In 1979 the Black Hawk district court entered a decree dissolving the marriage of Delores and Danny Rathe. The decree called for sixty dollars per week in child support. Danny is currently more than $27,000 in arrears on these payments.
