subject. says in the July number of the
North American Review:
1T does not seem likely that the
decision of the supreme court in the
Haddock case will make any substantial
change in legal policies. Its main pur-
port is to sanction the continuation of
their own policies by New York and
other eccentric states.
"Those states that have preceded
under the federal constitution in recog-
nizing foreign divorces are now released
from that position, but it seems not i'm
probable that they will incline toward
adhering to the former result through
comfy, especially as the majority
opinion of the supreme court of the
United States pointedly leaves the way
open on that ground"
That the United States supreme court
may reverse its decision after a change
of personnel is thought probable by
Mr.. Larremore. If the decision is re-
versed it would mean that the courts
of all the states would be compelled to
recognize the divorce DEGREES of every
other state, regardless of how service
of the suit was made or on what grounds
the divorce was granted.

Over Decision Of Supreme Court
in Divorce Case.
DECISION NOT so SWEEPING
Courts Of All States Except Three Win
Recognize Divorces Granted in
Another State, Regardless
As To Service.

The decision of the U. S. supreme court
in the case of Haddock against Haddock
which, recently made public, scared
many people who had been parties in
divorce proceedings is not as sweeping
as at first declared, according to the
assertion of Judge Gantenbein of the
circuit court.
1t was reported locally that by the
decision of the supreme court divorce
secured in state other than the one in
which the martial domicile was and in
which service ON the defendant had been
made by publication instead of in per-
son would be recognized only in the
state in which the divorce was granted.
Judge Gantenbein declares that such e
divorce would undoubtedly be recognized
in all the states except New York, Penn
sylvania and South Carolina.
"The recent supreme court decision
is the case of Haddock against Haddock
is not as sweeping as was generally sup
pose,a said the judge. "The courts of
all the states except New York, Penn
sylvania and South Carolina have been
accustomed, as a matter of comfy, or
judicial courtesy. to give full faith AMI
credit to the DEGREES of the courts of
other states in divorce proceedings, al
though service may have been on the
defendant by publication of the sum-
mons, and the martial domicile not in
the state where the divorce was granted.
"The supreme court of the United
States in its decision particularly |
specifies that the courts may continue |
to recognize the divorce DEGREES If
courts of other states, and in all prob |
ability the courts of all the states ex-
cept the three mentioned will continue |
to do So"
The decision of the supreme court in
the Haddock case was that the New
York courts could not be compelled to
recognize a divorce granted in Con-
necticut court where service had been
made by publication. The court reached
this opinion by bare majority, stand |
ing to 4.
Supposed a man and wife lived in
New York" continued Judge Gantenbein
sand the wife went to Ohio and began
a suit for divorce in which service on
the husband was had by the publication
of notice in the newspapers. The di-
vorce, if granted, would be recognized
not only in Ohio, but in every other
state in the union except New York, J
Pennsylvania and South Carolina.
'But if either the husband or wife
were to remarry in any of these three
states, they would be liable to prosecu-
ton for bigamy. In all the other states
the validity of the divorce would not be
A divorce cannot be obtained on any
ground in South Carolina. In New York
divorces are granted for infdelity only.
Pennsylvania allows little more ground
for divorce, but ranks third in the
severity of its divorce laws.
