Heading: whether the chancellor erred in failing to give joe credit for payment of temporary rehabilitative alimony and prior lump-sum alimony payments.

Text: ¶45. Joe argues that the chancellor was clearly erroneous in failing to give him credit for temporary rehabilitative alimony payments paid between December 2003 and December 2005 and lump-sum alimony payments paid between December 2005 and December 2006. Further, Joe argues that the chancellor's use of the face value of the marina note rather than the diminished value from the payments is arbitrary and capricious. Joe directs this Court to Ory v. Ory, 936 So.2d 405 (Miss. Ct.App.2006). ¶46. Joe fails to direct this Court to case law stating that temporary support should be considered in equitable distribution; therefore, this issue is procedurally barred. Parker v. Parker, 929 So.2d 940, 945 (Miss.App.2005) (citing Jones v. Howell, 827 So.2d 691, 702 (Miss.2002)). Further, as discussed supra, the chancellor awarded lump-sum alimony rather than a portion of the note as a marital asset; thus, the chancellor was free to exercise his discretion in equitable distribution, which was not arbitrary and capricious. This issue is without merit.
