Neely v. California State Personnel Board

The executors of the will of Thomas S. Spivey appeal from a judgment which was rendered in favor of decedents former wife in an action on a rejected claim. The claim is for arrearages for child support which had been entered in a final judgment of divorce. The divorce decree ordered Thomas Spivey to pay to respondent, Sylvia E. Spivey, alimony for herself, which is not a subject of dispute, and $350 per month "for the support and maintenance of the said minor children; said payments to continue until the further order of the court." The decree, dated June 8, 1951, does not have a breakdown into allowance for each child. The eldest, Richard, became 21 years of age on April 2, 1958; the second, Glenda, on May 21, 1962; Elaine, the third child, was born May 28, 1945.
