Wilhelm v. Wilhelm

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Fourth Department
Apr 1, 1901
61 App. Div. 611 (N.Y. App. Div. 1901)

Opinion

April Term, 1901.


Order affirmed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements. All concurred, except McLennan, J., who dissented, and Laughlin, J., who dissented in memorandum.


Here the wife is not involuntarily compelled to litigate. She herself, brings the action and for relief purely statutory and unknown to the common law. Neither the statute nor the common law authorizes the allowance of alimony in an action by the wife to annul a subsequent marriage of her husband. McLennan, J., concurred.
