SUED FOR BREACH OF PROMISE

JURY CAVE

DAMAGES

An unusual point of law in a brench of promise case was decid ed by Mr. Justice Hawke in the King's Bench Division, when he held that £200 damages nsressed by the jury against Sir Anthony St. John Mildmay, Bart., need not be paid.

The reason was that the promise was made between the time when decree nai for divorce in

♫

favour of the first Lady St. John Mildmay was granted and before It was made absolute.

In his pleadings defending the nction, Sir Anthony had admitted the the promise to marry, and breach of that promise, but replied on the point that the promise was null and void in law. The case involved the legal proposition that a pomise by a husband was against public policy "us tending to cause him to disregard the general rules of morality," and the Judge said Sir that he was bound to hold Anthony's marriage to the first Lady St. John Mildmay was still subsisting till the divoree decree was made absolute.

It was possible, he pointed out, for the wife to change her mind. and an appeal to Sir Anthony on behalf of his child might have had sufficient weight with him to re- sult in their living together again. The plaintiff was a former re- gistered State nurse, Miss Emily Kender. Her solicitor indicated after the judgment was given that there "certainly would be an ap- Deal".
