CONE v. CONE

Supreme Court of New Hampshire Carroll.
Aug 1, 1877

Actual imprisonment in the state prison under a sentence for more than a year is a cause of divorce, not suspended by a bill of exceptions on which the conviction may be reversed.

DOE, C. J.

The defendant's actual imprisonment under the judgment is a cause of divorce. The statute does not recognize the reversible character of such judgments as a reason for suspending their operation in proceedings for divorce. Gen. St., c. 163, s. 3.

Exception overruled.

BINGHAM, J., did not sit.
