Divorce Petition Falls Short on Desertion Claim in State Pall Court
The State Pall Court division led by Justices Mann Meanthot and Mactarian declined the appeal by David Julia Linar of Albert Street Stawell. The petition sought divorce from wife Kitty Lerm of St Kilda on grounds of desertion around November 1825, but Justice Lowe found no time‑limit in the deed of separation and ruled the separation not proven. The appeal was dismissed with the court upholding the lower ruling.
