Annette B. Wetmore, Respondent v. Sarah Taylor Wetmore

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the lower court's judgment ordering the trustee of a testamentary trust for William B. Wetmore to apply surplus income to satisfy the plaintiff's alimony, holding that the plaintiff is a creditor under §51 of the Revised Statutes and that the trust remains valid; the judgment was modified to permit the husband to seek leave to share in trust income if his circumstances change.
