Description

In this appeal, we are asked to decide whether a divorce court is empowered to enforce through its contempt powers a child support decree after the child attained his majority when the terms of the decree track the support provisions of a separation agreement. The trial court ruled that it lacked jurisdiction to enforce the child support obligation, even though the agreement purported to require that support be paid after the age of majority. The court refused to enforce the support provision because the agreement was not incorporated by reference into the decree in accordance with Code § 20-109.1. We disagree with the trial court's ruling and reverse.
