Hill, J.

1. Where a petition was brought for divorce and permanent alimony, and pending this action the plaintiff filed an application for temporary alimony and obtained a rule nisi thereon, requiring the defendant to show cause why the application should not be granted, it was unnecessary to embody in such application a prayer for ordinary process and have the same served on the defendant as in the case of an original suit. Nipper v. Nipper, 129 Ga. 450 ( 59 S. E. 226 ).

2. Under the evidence in this case, the trial judge did not abuse his discretion in granting alimony and attorney’s fees.

Judgment affirmed.

All the Justices concur.
