Kimbro v. Kimbro
Lead Opinion
Finch, J.
This is an action for divorce. The plaintiff alleged extreme cruelty on the part of her husband. He denied the allegations of the complaint and filed a cross-complaint charging extreme cruelty on the part of the plaintiff. Judgment was entered denying either party a divorce and requiring the defendant to pay the plaintiff twenty dollars a month for her support. The defendant has appealed from the judgment.
The appellant contends that he should have been granted a divorce on the ground of extreme cruelty, specified in his cross-complaint as follows:
It appears that the plaintiff’s accusation was made during ■ one of the quarrels between them. The defendant was of the age of seventy-six years at the time of his alleged misconduct and the plaintiff was then fifty-four. It is not deemed necessary to follow the parties through their charges and countercharges, as shown by the evidence, but it is sufficient to say that it does not appear as a matter of law, contrary to the findings of the trial court, that the defendant is entitled to a divorce on the ground alleged in the cross-complaint.
The judgment is affirmed.
Plummer, J., and Thompson (R. L.), J., concurred.
