Court Orders Remand in Shrader Case and Divorces Persinger
In a remand, the court ordered Shrader to receive any additional compensation since his motion to reopen was filed on September 5, 1946. In a separate ruling by Judge Fox, Summers County’s divorce grant to James Earl Persinger from Evelyn Frances Persinger was reversed. The decision held a single noninjurious blow and isolated cruelty do not justify a divorce and directed dismissal of the cross bill alleging cruelty.
