Hayes v. Hayes
New York Supreme Court
Motioit for reargument of application in a matrimonial action to punish for contempt in failing to pay pendente lite alimony.
1Opinion of the CourtMaddox, J.
Defendant seeks a reargument of a motion upon which an order has been made and entered, holding him in contempt of court for failing to comply with its order directing the payment of alimony.
On the argument of that motion it was, among other things, urged, and counsel here contends, that the court was without jurisdiction to adjudge the defendant guilty of contempt for the non-payment of past due alimony, on the ground that the divorce action had been previously terminated by dismissal of the action, because of plaintiff’s default in appearing when the case was reached for trial.
