The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal regarding a divorce case where the lower court had granted custody to the respondent. The appellant sought to have the custody and visitation rights claim examined, but this request was explicitly left unexamined by the lower court under Section 2, Paragraph 2, Subsection 4 of the Act on the Administration of Justice. Consequently, the appellate court found no grounds to review the merits of the custody issue because the lower court had not addressed it.
