Mrs Stillman Gets Decision In Divorce Legitimacy Case
In a Stillman divorce matter dating to 1921, the court ruled that an action by a husband for divorce cannot be used to force a separate legitimacy contest. The court affirmed that legitimacy is an incident in a divorce suit and cannot stand as a separate action. Attorney Isaac N Mills commented that the Court of Appeals found no separate legitimacy action exists under New York law.
