DIETERICH, J.
Divorce is a statutory proceeding.[1] The statutes affecting divorce in this state provide for the support of minor children of the parties.[2] No jurisdiction or authority is conferred by the divorce statutes on the court to provide in a divorce judgment, or any proceeding in a divorce action, for the support of adult children of the parties. The statutory provisions are plain and concise limiting the support, maintenance, and education of the children to the period of their minority. Hence, any order awarding support money for an adult child in a divorce action would necessarily be extra-judicial, a nullity. Boehler v. Boehler (1905), 125 Wis. 627, 104 N. W. 840, and Halmu v. Halmu (1945), 247 Wis. 124, 19 N. W. (2d) 317.
*409 It therefore necessarily follows that that part of the order of the trial court which revises the judgment by awarding support money for the adult child be vacated.
By the Court.The order of the trial court awarding support money for the adult child to the defendant is reversed, and cause remanded with directions to enter an order crediting the payment made under the void order, so as to satisfy the requirement in the judgment for the payment of alimony, to the defendant and support money for the minor children of the parties.
