Order Denying Rehearing
May 21, 1957. 311 P.2d 412.
Divorce.
Decision of Supreme Court on original submission, that an order for preliminary allowances to wife in divorce suit for counsel fees and support pending litigation was interlocutory and not appealable was not eonstruable as permitting a party thereafter to cause an installment judgment to be entered, take an appeal from such-judgment and in such appeal attack the order for temporary alimony. NRS 125.170,125.270.

Per Curiam:

The petition for rehearing is denied.
Appellant’s petition for rehearing indicates that the effect of our opinion and decision dismissing the appeal filed February 11, 1957, 73 Nev. 19, 307 P.2d 115, is to hold that, although an order for the payment of temporary alimony is not appealable under Rule 72 (b) NRCP, a party could thereafter cause an installment judgment to be entered, NRS 125.170, 125.270, take an appeal from such judgment, and in such appeal attack the order for temporary alimony. Counsel states that this could be the impression likewise gained by the other members of the bar from a reading of our per curiam opinion dismissing the appeal. Such was not the intended implication of the opinion. The distinction between temporary and final orders for the payment of alimony, so far as concerns their appealability, maintains as in the past, unmodified by NRS 125.170 or 125.270.
