41 A.2d 611

JOSEPH ANTHONY SKAVINA v. JANET SKAVINA.

No. 3518.Supreme Court of New Hampshire Hillsborough.
Decided March 6, 1945.

PETITION to annul a marriage alleged to have been obtained by fraud. The defendant demurred to the petition. The demurrer was sustained and the plaintiff excepted. Transferred by Blandin, J.

Chretien Craig (Mr. Chretien orally), for the plaintiff.

Arthur B. Hayden and Osgood Osgood (Mr. Hayden orally), for the defendant.

PER CURIAM.

The petition alleges sufficient grounds for annulment. However, we deem it inexpedient to consider at this time the numerous allegations of fraud, some of which may not be sustained by the evidence. The contention that the plaintiff does not come into equity with “clean hands” is not conclusive. See 16 Minn. Law Rev. 215.

Exception sustained.

BRANCH, J., was absent.
