There is some question made as
to the account of the assignee in
the Probate court. This proceed
ings in the court below is the
third growing out of the marriage
relations between the plaintiff
and defendant and of their prop
erty rights. In the divorce case
as we'll as in the assignment case
many of the legal rights of the
plaintiff would necessarily have
been involved. It is clear that
whatever could have been Ceter-
mined in the divorce case and in
the assignment case cannot he
re. litigated in the case at bar.
The right Of dover could have
been and evidently was litigated
and a court of equity would not
set aside a conveyance or estab-
lish an equitable trust for the
purpose of allowing the plaintiff
to recover her dover a second
time.
In the divorce case the court
had jurisdiction to fix the plain
tiff's right of alimony and charge
the same upon sufficient real es-
tate to secure the payment there
of. That the court apparently
did.
The amount allowed is presum-
ed to be adequate and the real
estate against which tits charged
is presumed to be, sufficient for
it's security. This would there
for release the balance Of his es-
tate.
It is true that the allowances
to the plaintiff might at some sub
seouent time upon proper show
ling, be increased. but we doubt
whether a court Of equity would
be called upon to anticipate this
state of affairs and grant equl-
table relief upon a probability
that was contingent and might
never happen.
Equitable relief is only granted
| in cases where the right is cleal
and there is no such a showing
in the amended petition in this
case as would justify the court II
anticipating that an increase Il
the amount of allmony might be
come necessary.
We agree with the opinion Q
the court below as to the sutticl
ency of the amended petition.
Counsel for plaintiff in errC
urged in this court that a cas-
has been made in the amende
petition of a secret trust and
