Hall v. Hall
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York · Decided April 27, 1960
10 A.D.2d 886; 201 N.Y.S.2d 237; 1960 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 10398
Hall v. Hall

Opinion of the Court

In an action by the wife for a separation, the husband appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Kings County, dated December 29, 1959, awarding the wife alimony pendente lite and a counsel fee. Order affirmed, with $10 costs and disbursements. On the record presented, we find no abuse of discretion by the Special *887Term in fixing the amounts of alimony and counsel fee. As we have said in the past, the best protection for a husband in a ease such as this is to seek a speedy trial in which the facts can be fully developed (Leonard v. Leonard, 1 A D 2d 981). Nolan, P. J., Beldovk, Ughetta, Pette and Brennan, JJ., concur.
