Head Matter:
27593.
VICK v. VICK.
Argued December 11, 1972
Decided January 4, 1973.
Jack W. Carter, for appellant.
Edward Parrish, for appellee.

Opinion:
UNDERCOFLER, Justice.
The sole issue presented in this case is whether the trial court can alter a judgment awarding custody of a minor child during the same term without holding an additional evidentiary hearing. "[A] court has plenary control over its judgments, orders and decrees during the term at which they were made, and, in the exercise of a sound discretion, may revise, revoke, or modify them." Dover v. Dover, 205 Ga. 241 (1) (53 SE2d 492); Barrett v. Manus, 219 Ga. 693 (135 SE2d 430).
It follows that there is no merit in this contention of the appellant.
Judgment affirmed.
All the Justices concur.
