Advance Strong Arguments

Others advance the stronger argu-
ment that the city charter is opposed
to the granting of any such privilege
as that given the Edison company, and
quote the following from the charter
as proof:
"All lands and real property located

hereafter be set apart or dedicated for

PRESENT SYSTEM PROVES
MOST UNSATISFACTORY
Case Of Johns VS.. Johns viii stand
as Measure for Future suits-ln-
terlocutory DEGREES Cause
Much Confusion

Following an investigation of sew
eral weeks Judge D. X. Trask of de-
partment four of the superior court
Yesterday handed down a decision in
the divorce case Of Johns against
Johns which will be held as precedent
I'm all divorce cases from now on until
some change is made in the present
law which shall afford much needed
relief.
According TO the statements of emil
nent turists of California the present
divorce procedure Is very poor and
costly errors are constantly occurring.
For instance a woman or man ls
granted an interloCutory decree of di-
vorce. on that same date, Just one
year later she receives her final de-
cree of divorce and is then free to re-
marry. But the trouble comes when
attorneys in the case are careless or
the women or men are careless and
forget to ask for their final decree. In
many cases the date of issuing the
final decree is overlooked by the clerks
who have more than their share of
work to do.
Makes Marriages Illegal
Then when the date comes round one
year after the interlocutory decree has
been granted the woman or man in the
case Teu-dTIleS' tlillhih6' VI Cc'.i 90 th''I
all is right. 1t later proves in many
cases that the attorney has failed to
apply for a final decree of divorce or
some objection has arisen of which the
plaintiff in the case has not been noti-
fed and the second marriage is IL
legal.
Such cases have been frequent, but
all have been rectified so far at great
trouble to the court officials.
The Johns case opened the ques-
ton in it's most fragrant form and for
some time Judge Trask has been puz-
zled as to just what decision to give.

JUDGES DECISION ESTABLISHES
PRECEDENT In DIVORCE LAWS

Joseph s. Johns. the husband, mar
ried i'm 1875 at Salna, Kas. Accord
ing to his allegations his wife deserted
him and after waiting several years
he decided TO bring divorce proceedings
against her.
According to his allegations his
wife, Lydia Johns, had not lived with
/ him during their married life and
therefore the property he had amassed
was his own personal property and not
community property
Provides Precedent
lie was granted a divorce on Janu-
ary 81 903 by Judge Trask, and dur
ing January of this year, just before
the handing down of the final decree,
attorneys for the woman appeared i'm
court and asked that the case be
reopened and the woman allowed to
! file an answer and that the court re-
ceive proof of her allegations against
her husband. She further asked that
the court Investigate the community
property and divide 1t.
Since the present divorce laws pro-
vide that an objection must he en-
tered within six months after the
granting of the interlocutory decree
the objection i'm the Johns case came
too late. But i'm the meantime the
final decree was held up for several
months, causing no end of legal ditl-
culties. The Johns case brought out
several cloudy points of law in the
present divorce procedure and as the
supreme court had never been called
upon to make decisions on similar
cases Judge Trask was compelled to
provide the precedent, His ruling will.
hereafter be recognized as authority
on any similar cases in the superior
court.
Denies Womans Motion
The decision handed down by Judge
Trask yesterday was as follows:
Defendants motion for leave to file
an answer herein is denied. likewise
her motion that the courts proceed to-
take proof of the allegations of fact
made in her afFidavits heretofore filed
herein is denied and her motion that
the court appoint day for hearing and
take evidence as to the community
property of the parties and that final
Judgment be. entered dividing the COM
munity property of said parties be-
tween them is also denied.
But it is ordered that a final de-
cree be entered in accordance with the
interlocutory decree heretofore given
be prepared, signed and filed away"
