Description

INGRAM, Judge This proceeding was initiated by the wife when she filed a complaint seeking divorce on the grounds of adultery
and physical cruelty. Following an ore tenus proceeding, the trial court granted the divorce and effected a property settlement.
The wife appeals, contending that the amount of the assets and alimony in gross awarded to her constitutes an abuse of the
trial court's discretion, particularly in view of the husband's adultery. It is axiomatic that alimony awards and property division are discretionary with the trial court. Montgomery v. Montgomery,
519 So. 2d 525 (Ala. Civ. App. 1987); Carnaggio v. Carnaggio, 475 So. 2d 861 (Ala. Civ. App. 1985). We are authorized to disturb
the trial court's decision only if it is unsupported by the evidence and, therefore, is unjust an palpably wrong. Austin v.
Austin, 408 So. 2d 138 (Ala. Civ. App. 1981). Because alimony awards are interwoven with the division of assets, the entire
judgment must be considered in order to determine whether the trial court abused its discretion. Montgomery, supra.
