Description
COOPER, J. Teresa Lentz brought this action seeking a decree of divorce from Gary Lentz, primarily on the ground of cruel and inhuman treatment, and seeking custody of the three minor children born during the period of marriage. Gary Lentz filed a cross-complaint seeking a decree of divorce on the ground of adultery, and also seeking custody of the children. During the proceedings the parentage of the youngest child became an issue. At the insistence of Mr. Lentz, a blood-grouping test was made which showed that Mr. Lentz was not the father. The chancellor granted Mr. Lentz a decree of divorce and custody of the two oldest children. Custody of the youngest child was left with Mrs. Lentz under the belief that the chancery court is without jurisdiction to award custody of a child to anyone other than the mother, where it is proven that the husband is not the father of the child. We agree with the giving of custody of the youngest child to Mrs. Lentz, but do so on the basis that it is in the manifest best interest of the child, not on the basis that the chancery court does not have jurisdiction to award custody of the child.
