Edna Conboy Martindell, Plaintiff-Respondent v. Jackson Martindell, Dependant-Appellant

Summary

The Supreme Court of New Jersey affirmed the Chancery Division’s order increasing the plaintiff’s alimony to $550 per month, making it retroactive to October 19, 1953, and upheld the $4,500 counsel fee award, while also holding that the Appellate Division should have granted the defendant’s motion for an extension of time to file his appeal because good cause was shown and no prejudice resulted.
