Opinion
PER CURIAM.
This is an appeal from an order made after judgment in a divorce ease allowing alimony. The affidavit, among other things, states that the case has been tried, and judgment rendered for plaintiff; that an appeal had already been taken from the judgment, and a motion for a new trial had been made and denied; and that defendant contemplated an appeal from such order. Thereupon, the court allowed as alimony for the two appeals: For printing, $100; for counsel fees, $250. The affidavit also shows that, although alimony had been previously allowed to the amount of $1,700, only $250 had been paid; that plaintiff was destitute of means. It is contended that the allowance is excessive, but we cannot so' conclude. The judge who made the order had tried the case, and was fully aware of the nature of the controversy. *821How much printing would be required would depend upon this. It would have been more prudent to forbear making an allowance for the second appeal until after it had been taken, but our records show that the appeal from the order denying a new trial was taken afterward. We do not think the order should be reversed because the provision for this was premature. The order is affirmed.
