Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Matrimonial Jurisdiction in Ontario, and Quebec
In a recent work, The Marriage Laws of Canada, I ventured to call in question the right of the Civil Courts of Quebec to exercise Matrimonial Jurisdiction. In the following pages I have given at length the reasons which induce me to believe, that neither in Ontario, nor in Quebec is'there, at present, any Court which can right fully exercise Matrimonial Jurisdiction. This work is therefore a sort of supplement to the former work, and readers of it will find that, for the proper appreciation of what is here set forth, it is advisable to make them selves familiar with what is said in the work above referred to. If I have come to a right conclusion, it fol lows that the decrees of nullity of marriage, pronounced by Quebec Courts, which have occasioned some disturb ance in the public mind, were pronounced without proper jurisdiction, and are mere nullities.
