Josephine Stampfer, Resp’t, v. Siegmund alias William Stampfer, App’lt.

(New York Superior Court,

General Term,

Filed November 3, 1890.)

Divorce—Extra allowance.

Courts have no power to make allowance to a wife for past expenses incurred in an action for divorce.

Appeal from an order granting plaintiff an allowance for counsel fee.

Louis Ausbaden, for app’lt; Samuel D. Sewards, for resp’t.

This case cannot be distinguished in any material respect from the case of Beadleston v. Beadleston, 103 N. Y., 402 ; 3 N. Y. State Rep., 634.

The order appealed from is reversed and the motion denied, without costs.
