Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit·Decided May 2, 1957·No. 13585·Published

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

The question on appeal is whether the District Court abused its discretion in ordering that a fee awarded by the court to a guardian ad litem for a minor defendant should be paid from the estate of said minor in favor of whom judgment had been rendered in the litigation which gave rise to the apointment of the guardian ad litem. The alternative was for the District Court to order that the fee be paid by the unsuccessful plaintiffs. See section 13-105 D.C.Code 1951. We find no abuse of discretion in the order as made and it accordingly is

Affirmed.
