Millar v. Millar

Court of Appeals of Maryland
Mar 10, 1926
137 A. 915 (Md. 1926)

Opinion

Decided March 10th, 1926.

Divorce — Adultery — Abandonment.

Evidence that a married man, and a woman to whom he had been attentive, occupied adjoining rooms, one of which was a parlor, over night at a summer resort, held to justify a finding of adultery.

A husband was not entitled to divorce on the ground of abandonment, when the separation of the parties was due to his attentions to another woman, which he refused to put an end to, although his wife invited a reunion conditioned on his doing so, and he had by formal agreement consented to the separation.

Decided March 10th, 1926.

Appeal from the Circuit Court No. 2 of Baltimore City (STANTON, J.).

Bill by David Millar against Agnes L. Millar for divorce. From a decree for defendant, plaintiff appeals. Affirmed.

The cause was argued before BOND, C.J., PATTISON, URNER, ADKINS, OFFUTT, DIGGES, and PARKE, JJ.

Charles W. Heuisler, with whom was Morrill N. Packard on the brief, for the appellant.

Watson E. Sherwood, for the appellee.
