Holdings:
The
Virginia Court made the following holding:
- Va. Code Ann. §
20-121.02 provides that in any case where the ground for divorce from the
bond of matrimony is set out in Va. Code Ann. § 20-91(6) or where willful
desertion or cruelty is the ground for divorce from bed and board and the
bill of complaint prays for a divorce from bed and board, either party may
move the trial court for a divorce from the bonds of matrimony on the
grounds set out in Va. Code Ann. § 20-91(9), if the statutory period set
out therein has elapsed, and no amended bill of complaint or cross bill
shall be required to be filed.
- While the power to award
spousal support and maintenance (formerly alimony) is given to a divorce
court by statute, it can also be the basis of an independent suit in
equity. However, the power of a court of equity to grant such further
relief as necessary extends only to those powers required to effectually
carry out its decrees in matters over which it has the power to act; it
does not extend to an award of relief not raised by the pleadings.
