Alimony Rates Fixed by New York Appellate Court
The New York second department of the appellate division in Brooklyn rules in an undefended divorce action that alimony is capped at 10 dollars per week with a 100 dollar counsel fee. The decision, written by Justice Hooker, states temporary alimony of 20 dollars a week and 250 dollars counsel fee should be reduced to 10 and 100 respectively if the husband earns under five thousand dollars and the wife utilizes the family home. Expenses for supporting an aged mother and aiding a sister may be considered on a motion for counsel fee and alimony.
