Description
Herman Evans, plaintiff-respondent, brought this action for divorce from his wife, Marguarite Evans, defendant-appellant,
on grounds of extreme cruelty. He sought a division of the property claiming that most of it was his separate property. Marguarite
Evans answered, denying the allegations of the plaintiff. She also cross-claimed for divorce and alleged that most of the
property was community. Prior to the trial the court appointed a certified public accountant as master to assist the court
in tracing the property and in making an accounting of the assets of the parties. The trial court after an extensive trial, devoted almost entirely to the determination of what were the assets of the estate
and their character, granted a divorce to the wife on grounds of extreme cruelty, divided the property between the parties,
finding that the great majority was the husband's separate property, divided the community property equally, and granted the
wife $150.00 a month alimony. The court also ordered the respondent to pay all court costs including the accountant's fee
of $877.50 and attorney's fees in the amount of $1,500.00. The wife thereupon appealed from the decree insofar as the division
of the property was concerned; the amount of alimony awarded to her by the court and the amount of attorney's fees. The appellant's
main specifications of error are to the following amended findings of fact made by the trial court.
