Montana Supreme Court Grants Writ In Divorce Residency Case
The Montana Supreme Court issued a writ of supervisory control at the request of Frank Duckworth against Judge Hurley and clerk J W McNutt to force a decree denying Duckworth a divorce. The case centers on whether Duckworth's residence in Opheim, Montana after nights at the customs station constitutes domiciled residence, with justices debating whether a US citizen can establish domicile for divorce jurisdiction. The court upheld the lower finding that Duckworth resided in Opheim for the statutory period, though Justice Sande dissented citing service issues and lack of proof that the parties were Canadian citizens without US residency intent.
