Opinion

majority opinion

Bell, J.

The evidence showing without dispute that the defendant was financially unable to pay the sum awarded as alimony and attorney’s fees, it was error to adjudge that he was in contempt of court because of his failure to pay the same. Pinckard v. Pinckard, 23 Ga. 286; Davis v. Davis, 138 Ga. 8 (74 S. E. 830) ; Potter v. Potter, 145 Ga. 60 (88 S. E. 546) ; Lightfoot v. Lightfoot, 149 Ga. 213 (99 S. E. 611). Judgment reversed.

All the Justices concur.
