Sandra Silverstein vs. William Rice W1999-01336-COA-R3-CV Authoring Judge: Judge Holly M. Kirby Trial Court Judge: George R. Ellis This is a suit to enforce a past child support obligation. The mother filed suit against the father, seeking past due child support payments, health insurance premiums and medical costs for the parties' three minor children. The trial court held for the mother, and granted her a judgment for the child support arrearages, health insurance and medical costs, attorney's fees and pre-judgment interest on the child support arrearages. The father appeals, arguing, inter alia, that the trial court erred by failing to prorate his child support obligation as each child attained majority. We affirm, holding that the trial court was not required to prorate the child support obligation as each child attained majority, because the child support award was a lump sum for all of the children and the amount was below the guideline amount for the remaining minor children.

Estate of W.O. McIntyre W1999-01700-COA-R3-CV Authoring Judge: Judge Holly M. Kirby Trial Court Judge: Dewey C. Whitenton This is a will contest. The decedent committed suicide after writing several notes in which he expressed his wish that the bulk of his estate pass to his wife of eighteen years, with specific bequests to his children. The decedent's children contested the validity of the disposition, arguing that the decedent lacked testamentary capacity to execute a will at the time that he wrote the notes. After a jury trial, the jury found that the decedent had testamentary capacity and that the handwritten notes constituted a valid holographic will. The children appeal, arguing that the burden of proving testamentary capacity should have been placed on the will's proponents, due to the decedent's depression and resulting suicide, and that the evidence did not support the jury's verdict. We affirm, finding that the trial court did not err in its instructions on the burden of proof and that there is material evidence to support the jury's verdict.	McNairy	Court of Appeals	01/19/00
