Young, who until recently headed her legal |staff, has revealed in support of | ,‘h’ demand for attorney's fees. Young, representing the legal {firm which withdrew from the case |as her counsel, testified in court |here yesterday that Mrs. Chaplin | not only refused the cash settle- | |ment but remained insistent upon¢ |naming a “prominent motion pic- {ture actress” with whom she al-| leges Chaplin was unduly familiar. | Several times the name of the ac- tress in question has almost come to light, but legal complications have intervened thus far. The case| now is set for trial August 22. The hearing was held in superior | court to determine the amount of fees due to the firm of Young and Young, which withdrew from Mrs. Chaplin's side of the case avowed because she had once tentatively agreed to accept the settlement of- | fer and later rejected it. “Mrs. Chaplin proposed that we file an amended complaint in which a certain motion picture actress should be named,” Young started to testify. He was iInterrupted from further explanation by Edwin Mec- Murray, Mrs. Chaplin’s uncle, and who was associated with Young’s firm on her legal staff. McMurray made a hurried objection to fur- |ther testimony, which Judge Guerin sustained. McMurray insisted fur- ther statements from Young might be prejudiced to his client's case when it came up for trial. Superior Judge Walter Guerin, {after hearing considerable testimony by Young, postponed further hear- ing until August 22. A hearing on Monday on the [substitution of Kenyon and Braden Lee as attorneys, associated with McMurray, for Mrs. Chaplin, will be held before Judge Guerin.
