JUDICIAL DECISIONS

Out of state judgment did not have to be followed as to tax exemption after custody award changed.

- Because there was reasonable evidence of changed circumstances which supported the trial court's award of physical custody of the children to the mother, the court was not bound by the prior ruling of a Wyoming court with respect to the dependency exemption; thus, the court did not err in finding that the parent who was awarded physical custody of the children, the mother, was entitled to claim the dependency exemptions for the three children.
