Decided March 14, 1966.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Barney J. Keren, Washington, D. C., for appellant.

Paul J. McGarvey, Washington, D. C., for appellee.

Before HOOD, Chief Judge, and QUINN and MYERS, Associate Judges.


QUINN, Associate Judge:

The husband appeals from a judgment awarding his wife separate maintenance in the amount of ten dollars per week. Code 1961, § 16-415 (as amended Supp. V, 1966, § 16-916). He contends that the trial court abused its discretion in granting any maintenance to the wife. Primarily, he claims that there was an inadequate showing that she is in need of support or that he is financially able to pay it.
