LAITA v. LAITA

DIVORCE, § 185 — modification, jurisdiction within 30 days. Where plaintiff had secured divorce decree and had consented to incorporation of contract concerning alimony, attorney's fees, dower, homestead and property rights, upon petition to modify decree on ground that it was fraudulently induced by defendant and plaintiff's attorney court had jurisdiction because petition was filed 27 days after decree and court still had control of it, and petition was improperly dismissed by trial court on theory that decree could only be attacked by original bill in equity in nature of bill of review.
