Evidence-Privilege-Husband And Wife-Attorney And Client

Michigan Law Review

A husband and wife are involved in marital difficulties. Together they consult an attorney in an effort to compromise their dispute, or failing in that, to arrange a property settlement prior to separation or divorce. Such a joint consultation may be for any one of a variety of purposes. In a later action, for divorce or separate maintenance for example, the question arises whether either the attorney or one of the spouses can disclose words spoken by the other spouse in the consultation. For instance, can the attorney or the husband disclose the wife's admission of adultery?

Marriag£-Insanity As Ground For Annulment

Michigan Law Review

Complainants sought to annul the marriage of their deceased brother on the ground that defendant, his widow, knowing him to be insane at the time, fraudulently procured the marriage. A statute provided for divorce on the ground, among others, of insanity at the time of marriage. On demurrer, held that the marriage was, under the statute, voidable only, could only be attacked directly in the life-time of the parties, and hence was not subject to collateral attack by the relatives after the death of the incompetent spouse.
