1978The holding was broadly based upon the inherent power of an equity court “. . .to make such changes in the amount of alimony originally granted by the Court for a wife’s support and separate maintenance, as the altered conditions of the parties may show to be equitable and necessary . . . ( 8 S.E.2d at 492 .) Because the decree of the South Carolina court in the case at bar was modifiable as to past due child support payments and future payments, we hold that said decree is not enforceable in Mississippi under the full faith and credit clause of the United States Constitution.
