The respondent husband brought a motion to strike the applicant wife's claim for equalization of net family properties, arguing her prior assignment in bankruptcy disentitled her from making the claim.
He also sought security for costs.
The wife produced evidence that her Trustee in Bankruptcy had returned the right to sue for equalization to her after her discharge.
The court found this distinguished her case from the authorities relied upon by the husband and concluded he had not shown she had no reasonable claim in law.
The motion to strike was dismissed, and the request for security for costs was denied without prejudice due to an insufficient record.
