Mrs Mary A. Livingston has been ad-
judged guilty OF contempt of court in
not having paid alimony to her hus-
band. Thus is added another chapter
to case that is curious and unusual.
Some time ago Judge Allen made an
order granting the aged husband S24
per month for maintenance, and directed
Mrs. Livingston to pay this monthly
stipend to provide her husband with the
necessaries of life. Previous to this or
der of court Mrs. Livingston had been
enjoined from disposing Of her property
at Pasadena, but so soon as the court
ordered her to pay s24 per month to her
husband she decided her property-from
whence she derived her income-to Mrs.
Elizabeth Wheeler, a daughter by
previous marriage, and the parsonage
whom Judge Allen held had been very
largely responsible for the disagreement
of the aged couple and for the harsh
treatment complained of by the old
man.
But with regard to the proceedings
wherein Mrs. Livingston was enJoined
from disposing of her property strange
oversight on the part of the old mans S
attorney developed yesterday. Judge
Mckinley had issued the restraining or
der before his term of office had ex-
pired and from forgetfulness or some
other cause. no indemnity bond was
filed on behalf of Mr.. Livingston after
the injunction had been granted. Judge
Allen yesterday held that this omission
rendered the restraining order nugatory
and in order to have Mrs. Livingston 5
transfer of property to her daughter,
Mrs Wheeler, set aside a new proceed
ing would be necessary, the deed trans
ferring the property being attacked on
the ground of fraud
AS the matter now stands, Mrs. Liv-
ingston is in contempt for not having
obeyed the mandate of the court 10
pay S24 per month for maintenance, and
is without the means to pay, having
decided away her property.
"A stay of execution was granted, how
ever. for five days. and it is both possible
and probable that the contempt pro-
ceedings will end in a satisfactory man
ner.
