Syllabus

<p>DIVORCE AND ALIMONY.</p> <p>Decree for Divorce where Jurisdiction was not Obtained Over Defendant does not Determine Alimony or Dower.</p> <p>A decree for divorce granted to a husband for the aggression of the wife under Gen. Code 11993 requires a judicial hearing by a court having jurisdiction of either the person or the property of the wife, or both; hence a decree for divorce granted in a proceeding in which no service, except by publication, was had upon the wife and of which she had no knowledge until after the decree, does not affect or determine her rights either to alimony or dower in property standing in the name of the husband.</p>
