Harry E. Shonfeld, Appellant v. Bessie Shonfeld, Respondent

Summary

The Court reversed the Appellate Division and Special Term, holding that the defendant's false representation of having $6,000 was a material fraud that induced the plaintiff's consent, and therefore granted an interlocutory decree of annulment; Justice Crane dissented, arguing the misrepresentation was not material and the marriage should be affirmed.
