Head Matter:
In the Matter of Sylvia Safran, Respondent, v. Herman Safran, Appellant.

Opinion:
Order of the Domestic Relations Court (Family Court), County of Kings, unanimously affirmed, with costs. The evidence amply sustains the order on the theory that the petitioner wife was likely to become a public charge. Under such circumstances the court had jurisdiction to make an award despite the decree of the Supreme Court in the separation action dismissing the wife's complaint. (Laws of 1933, chap. 482, § 137.) Present — Lazansky, P. J., Carswell, Tompkins, Davis and Johnston, JJ.
