Description
Willie Patton is defending the suit of her husband for a divorce and is asking for a decree in her favor upon a cross-complaint. At the time of the separation of the parties they entered into a property settlement agreement in which the wife released the husband from "all claims whatsoever" for support or attorney's fees. Upon the hearing of an order to show cause, Mrs. Patton was allowed alimony pendente lite and an additional amount for attorney's fees and costs. By his appeal from that order, the husband challenges the wife's right to such an award upon the ground that it violates the provisions of their contract and a later one executed by them.
