RESTITUTION CASES
PROCEDURE NO FORMALITY [Per United Press Association.! AUCKLAND, April 7. “ In all cases of applications for the restitution of conjugal rights the court must be satisfied that there is a genuine desiro for the respondent to return to the petitioner,” said Mr Justice Fair to-day during the hearing of a petition for restitution. He said that when a wife left her husband without marked differences of opinion or a quarrel and the husband didn’t make any serious attempts to persuade her to return that naturally cas*t some doubt on the genuineness of his request. His Honour did not consider it proper to treat these cases as a mere formality. He made an order for tho wife to return to her husband within 28 days in the case in which Lewis Janies Kinross sought an order for restitution against Doris Kinross.
