WIFE K, Plaintiff below, Appellant,
v.
HUSBAND K, Defendant below, Appellee.
Supreme Court of Delaware.
Submitted September 20, 1976.
Decided January 24, 1977.
Thomas Herlihy, III, of Herlihy & Herlihy, Wilmington, for plaintiff below, appellant.
Wilmer C. Bettinger, of Schmittinger & Rodriguez, Dover, for defendant below, appellee.
Before HERRMANN, C. J., DUFFY and McNEILLY, JJ.
*685 PER CURIAM:
This action was brought in the Family Court for support of minor children, combined with an action to enforce an alimony award made by the Superior Court in a divorce action. The Family Court ruled against the plaintiff in both actions on a common question of law. The plaintiff appealed to the Superior Court on the alimony judgment and to this Court directly on the child support judgment.
Dismissal of the direct appeal from the Family Court to this Court is sought on the ground that 13 Del.C. § 515(a)[1] does not authorize such direct appeal. We agree.
There is ambiguity in § 515 and, therefore, statutory construction is necessary.
The provisions of § 515 must be read in the light of 13 Del.C. § 507[2] (simultaneously *686 enacted) and of 10 Del.C. § 960(a).[3] When the Statutes are read together, it seems evident that the legislative intent was two-fold: (1) to divest the Court of Chancery of all jurisdiction over support and maintenance cases, vesting exclusive jurisdiction thereof in the Family Court, Jones v. Dickerson, Del.Ch., 330 A. 2d 164 (1974); Wife P. v. Husband P., Del.Ch., 287 A.2d 409 (1972); Wife S. v. Husband S., Del.Ch., 295 A.2d 768 (1972); but (2) to leave undisturbed all procedural rights theretofore enjoyed by litigants in that type of case in the Chancery Court.
The Family Court has had exclusive jurisdiction over child support cases since 1971. 10 Del.C. § 921(3).[4] Appeals therefrom are to the Superior Court by virtue of 10 Del.C. § 960(a). Thus, in the absence of express language to the contrary, it seems clear that the right of direct appeal provided by § 515(a) is limited to appeals in contractual separate maintenance and support actions which were within the jurisdiction of the Chancery Court when § 515 was enacted in 1974.
Since this was not such separate maintenance and support action, a direct appeal to this Court does not lie.
Appeal dismissed.
