Description
[25 N.Y.2d 59 Page 61] In 1927 appellant and Alphonse G. Sorrentino (hereafter the "husband") were married in Brooklyn, New York. In 1939 the parties
separated after which the husband voluntarily began to pay appellant $80 per month support for herself and their two children,
then 10 and 11 years of age. In the latter part of July, 1951 the husband, having retired from the New York City Police Force,
and his children having reached majority, went to Reno, Nevada, and obtained a divorce decree dated October 20, 1951 by default.
Appellant was served with process in this State in September, 1951 but never appeared in the Nevada action either in person
or by attorney. After receiving both the summons and a copy of the decree, appellant consulted a neighbor who was an attorney
and was advised that both the summons and the decree were "no good".
