Grace v. Grace

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• “Appellant’s conduct in accepting the benefits of the marriage which he now attempts to invalidate . . . is a circumstance which cannot be entirely ignored, for he certainly does not raise the question with ‘clean hands.’”
• “The presumption in favor of the validity of the subsequent marriage formally entered into is so great that in the absence of competent proof to the contrary it is to be assumed that the previous marriage has been dissolved either by death or legal action . . . .”
