Grant, Lemmon, Reasons, Writ

Super v. Super

Opinion of the Court

In re William C. Super, applying for Cer-tiorari, or Writ of Review to the Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit. Parish of Jefferson. 397 So.2d 1084.

Writ denied.

LEMMON, J., would grant the writ for the reasons assigned.

Dissenting Opinion

LEMMON, Justice,

dissenting from denial of writ application.

I would grant the writ. The parties, both-previously married, were only married five years before they were divorced. The alimony award (which does not include any award for child support) is 24% of the husband’s gross income. The wife is young and healthy, but has never worked. The wife should be required to attempt to earn some wages, or the award should be reduced in proportion to the earning ability.
