No. 810
    WEEDEN v. WEEDEN
    No. 19985.
    Supreme Court
    On motion to certify.
    Dock. July 16, 1926;
    4 Abs. 493.
    413. DIVORCE AND ALIMONY — May a Court of Appeals reverse the Common Pleas decree for divorce on the ground that said decree is against the weight of the evidence?
    Attorneys — R. M. Hunter, and H. M. Ben-, nett for Pltf; Maurice Kessler for Deft.; all of Columbus.
   This suit was brought originally by Charles H. Weeden in the Franklin Common Pleas against Hariett W. Weeden for divorce.

The judgment of the Common Pleas granting the divorce to Charles H. Weeden was reversed by the Court of Appeals on the ground that the decree was contrary to the weight of the evidence.

Charles Weeden in the Supreme Court contends: that the Court of Appeals could not reverse a decree solely for the reason that the decree was contrary to the weight of evidence.
