§43-121.


    When a divorce is granted, the wife shall be restored to her
maiden or former name if she so desires.  The court shall enter its
decree confirming in each spouse the property owned by him or her
before marriage and the undisposed-of property acquired after
marriage by him or her in his or her own right.  Either spouse may be
allowed such alimony out of real and personal property of the other
as the court shall think reasonable, having due regard to the value
of such property at the time of the divorce.  Alimony may be allowed
from real or personal property, or both, or in the form of money
judgment, payable either in gross or in installments, as the court
may deem just and equitable.  As to such property, whether real or
personal, which has been acquired by the parties jointly during their
marriage, whether the title thereto be in either or both of said
parties, the court shall, subject to a valid antenuptial contract in
writing, make such division between the parties as may appear just
and reasonable, by a division of the property in kind, or by setting
the same apart to one of the parties, and requiring the other thereof
to be paid such sum as may be just and proper to effect a fair and
just division thereof.  The court may set apart a portion of the
separate estate of a spouse to the other spouse for the support of
the children of the marriage where custody resides with that spouse.
