Henry v. Henry
Facts:
Plaintiff wife filed a suit for divorce from defendant
husband on the grounds of willful desertion, constructive desertion, and
cruelty. The husband demurred to the wife's amended bill of complaint,
asserting the wife failed to state a cause of action for a divorce from bed and
board on the ground of cruelty. The Circuit Court of Loudoun, Virginia,
sustained the demurrer. The wife appealed.

Holdings:
The
Virginia Court made the following holding:
- In the context of a
divorce action, the appellate court accepts all allegations in the bill of
complaint as true, as well as all reasonable inferences that flow from
them. If the allegations sufficiently state a cause of action cognizable
in Virginia , the suit should be allowed to proceed.
- Va. Code Ann. § 20-95
authorizes a decree of divorce from bed and board for cruelty, reasonable
apprehension of bodily hurt, willful desertion or abandonment. In reality,
there are only two grounds for a divorce from bed and board, desertion and
cruelty, because cruelty and reasonable apprehension of bodily hurt are so
closely related in the matter of proof and effect.
