An Appeal from the Decision of New Jersey Court.
Trenton, June 29.—August Streitwols, who claims his legal residence is Mandan, N. D., today took out a writ of error carrying to the United States Supreme court the decision of the New Jersey court of errors and appeals rendered last week, setting aside a North Dakota divorce obtained by Streitwols from his wife, Elizabeth Streitwols, of New Brunswick, N. J.
The assignment of error filed by Streitwols' counsel claims that the New Jersey court violated the federal constitution in not giving full faith and credit to the decision of the North Dakota court. The decision of the New Jersey court was based on a claim that Streitwols at the time he obtained the divorce was a bona-fide resident of New Jersey and the North Dakota court had no jurisdiction in the matter.
