David v. David

Supreme Court of New Jersey · Decided October 17, 1932 · PER CURIAM.

162 A. 538; 111 N.J. Eq. 493; 1932 N.J. LEXIS 760

Counsel

On appeal from decrees advised by Advisory Master Marshall Yan Winkle, who filed the following conclusions:, Mr. John G. Reed, for the appellants., Mr. Alfred Brenner, for the respondent.

Opinion of the Court

Pee Curiam.

We concur for the most part in the results reached by the advisory master, and for the reasons stated by him.

But we conclude that the amount of the second counsel fee allowed, $500, is excessive and that it should be reduced to $150. We think also that the allowance of $30 per week alimony was, under the circumstances, excessive, and that it should be reduced to $20 per week. With the above modifications the decrees brought up will be affirmed. No costs will be allowed.

For modification — The Chancellor, Trenchard, Parker, Lloyd, Case, Bodine, Donges, Brogan, Van Buskirk, Kays, Dear, Wells, Kerney, JJ. 13.
