McCOY v. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

No. 4621.

256 A.2d 908 (1969)

Marie L. McCOY, Appellant, v. DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, Appellee.

District of Columbia Court of Appeals.

Decided October 3, 1969.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Albert N. Lobl, Washington, D. C., for appellant.

Leo N. Gorman, Asst. Corp. Counsel, with whom Charles T. Duncan, Corp. Counsel, Hubert B. Pair, Principal Asst. Corp. Counsel, and Richard W. Barton, Asst. Corp. Counsel, were on the brief, for appellee.

Before HOOD, Chief Judge, and FICKLING and NEBEKER, Associate Judges.

PER CURIAM:

This is an appeal from a judgment based on a finding that appellant was not the common-law wife, and thus, is not the widow of the late Hurland T. McCoy. The finding operates to deny appellant her claim against the District of Columbia for salary and annual leave unpaid to Mr. McCoy at the time of his death.

In her effort to prove existence of her common-law marriage, the appellant testified that she "married" Mr. McCoy in August, 1947.
