A Los Angeles judge's decree on whether a wife may file a separate income tax return on half of jointly held property.
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 20. - California's community property law faced a new legal test today following a decree handed down here by Superior Judge Albert Lee Stephens in the case of Mrs. Fannie Lee Stewart against Ernest A. Stewart. If the judgment rendered by Judge Stephens is affirmed by the supreme court it may mean an annual saving of more than $11,000,-000 and the refunding of $100,000,-000 to California income tax payers, according to Miss Ida May Adams, attorney for Mrs. Stewart. Judge Stephens held that a wife was entitled to file a separate income tax return on half the property held jointly by herself and husband, and that the recent ruling of the supreme court constituted an unqualified judgment from which a new trial may result from motion by either party.
