Description
STAKELY, Justice. Robert M. Burleson (appellant) filed a petition on August 7, 1958, against Anita Gilbert Burleson (appellee),
in which he sought to obtain modification of the divorce decree rendered by the Circuit Court of Madison County, in Equity,
on July 5, 1957. The decree of divorce granted a divorce on the ground of cruelty to Anita Gilbert Burleson from the petitioner.
In addition to the divorce, Mrs. Burleson was granted in the aforesaid decree of divorce the custody of the four and one-half
year old son born of the marriage, 'subject to the right of Robert M. Burleson to see, be with and have the custody of the
child on Saturday of each week from two P.M. until seven P.M.' In paragraph four of the original bill of complaint filed by
Mrs. Burleson seeking a divorce she alleged that she was a fit and proper person to have the custody, care, control and management
of her minor child, Robert M. Burleson II. By his answer in the divorce proceedings Robert M. Burleson admitted that allegation
to be true. In the petition in the present proceeding in which the court is asked to modify the original divorce decree, Robert M. Burleson
seeks to have the custody of the child taken from the mother and granted to him or 'in the alternative' to reduce the amount
of maintenance and support 'proportionately and in accordance to the petitioner's decrease in income and additional expense.'
It is alleged in the petition that prior to, during and since the date of the decree of divorce, Anita Burleson has been having
an affair with a certain man named in the petition and left their home under the pretense of going to work and that on certain
named dates in 1958 she and this man were seen together at her home and in various other and sundry places in Huntsville,
Alabama.
