Desrochers v. Desrochers, 7135
Decision Date | 31 October 1975 |
Docket Number | No. 7135,7135 |
Parties | Dana A. DESROCHERS v. Real J. DESROCHERS. |
Court | New Hampshire Supreme Court |
Craig, Wenners, Craig & McDowell, Manchester (Joseph F. McDowell, III, Manchester, orally), for plaintiff.
Clifford J. Ross, Manchester, by brief and orally, for defendant.
The parties married in September 1970. Their only child, a daughter, was born in January 1973. The parties separated in May of that year and the wife brought this libel for divorce the following September. A month later the parties agreed to and the court approved arrangements for custody, visitation and support. The defendant did not support his wife and child from the time of separation until the temporary decree. He made the payments called for by the decree from its entry until June 1975. In July 1974, the Hillsborough County Superior Court, Loughlin, J., held a hearing and made certain findings of fact. The critical portion of these findings is: The superior court transferred without ruling the question 'whether, on all the findings of fact, cause exists for granting a divorce under the provisions of RSA 458:7-a.' This appeal was argued in September 1975. At the argument counsel informed the court that the defendant had stopped making support payments and had gone to Nevada in June 1975. At that time he had written to his attorney expressing his desire to remain married.
