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.
Veora sits in the witness box holding a document.
