High Court Opinion Reverses Parts of Edwards Divorce Case
The court reversed and remanded in parts of the Edwards divorce dispute. It held insufficient evidence to convict Mrs Edwards of desertion or cruelty except possibly adultery, criticized the trial court on infidelity findings, and kept some support for alimony and property division while restoring local counsel and costs. The ruling preserves the husband’s duty of maintenance under common law.
