RIGHT IN HOME
HUSBAND OR WIFE OPINIONS ON THE LAW [by TKLEGRAI'H —OWN CORRESPONDENT] WHANGAREI, Monday The question whether the husband or the wifs should leave home after a separation order lias been granted, •which was raised in the Magistrate's Court on November 7, was again before the Court to-day. The case was one in which a woman laid an information that her husband, against whom a separation order had been issued, committed trespass by remaining in the house in which she lived. The magistrate, Mr. G. N. Morris, reserved his decision at the hearing, but the matter was finally disposed of to-day, when Mr. Ross, counsel for the informant, wrote advising that he had decided to withdraw the information as he was of the opinion, after investigation ol the law, that his client could not succeed. The magistrate said that, although he had not as yet prepared his decision, he believed Mr. lloss to have arrived at the correct definition of the law under which it appeared the wife could not succeed. The case consequently was withdrawn.
