Field v. Field

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, First Department
Dec 9, 1952
281 App. Div. 657 (N.Y. App. Div. 1952)

Opinion

December 9, 1952.

Present — Dore, J.P., Cohn, Van Voorhis and Breitel, JJ.


Order unanimously reversed, with $10 costs and disbursements to the appellant, and the motion denied. Examinations before trial in matrimonial actions which would allow inquiry into the marital relations of the parties, as a matter of policy are not usually permitted. No special circumstances are shown here to warrant an exception to this general rule ( Tausik v. Tausik, 280 App. Div. 887 [1st Dept.]; Applebaum v. Applebaum, 273 App. Div. 966 [2d Dept.]; Shatz v. Shatz, 248 App. Div. 594 [2d Dept.]).
