Description

Veora sits in the witness box holding a document.
The former actress went to the bank where ex-husband Wayne A. Casady works and conducted a "sit in" to get him to pay her $3280.65 from an unsettled property dispute during their divorce in 1928. She was awarded almost all of the money she asked from Superior Judge Gould.
Similar photograph appears with the article, "Ex-Wife Defeats Casady, But Weeps at Victory," Los Angeles Times, 06 Oct 1932: A3, and "Court Fails To Help in Collection," Los Angeles Times, 10 Nov 1932: A1.
