APPELLATE COURT OPINIONS

The appellant, James Howard Turner, was convicted of two counts of aggravated kidnapping and one count of accessory before the fact to murder in the second degree following his pleas of guilty to these offenses. The trial court imposed a sentence of confinement for forty-five (45) years in the Department of Correction in each count. The three sentences are to be served concurrently.

This case involves a divorce ending a marriage of short duration. The General Sessions Court of Lebanon, Tennessee granted the divorce to both parties, dividing the marital property between them, and ordering the husband to pay $100 per month in rehabilitative alimony for fourteen years. The husband appealed, arguing that the trial court erred in dissolving the parties' marriage without reference to fault, in its division of marital property, and in ordering the payment of alimony. The wife appealed the trial court's refusal to grant her claim for attorney fees.
