Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York

1Opinion of the CourtDore, J.

The parties to this litigation were married on June 22, 1939, and have one child, a boy, who was a little over two years old at the time of the trial. The trial court granted plaintiff wife a decree of separation; defendant appeals.

At the close of the trial the learned trial court properly characterized this case as one in which a “ young couple had allowed trifles to become magnified until they are really big.” Most of the trial was concerned with such trifles and on this record we think plaintiff has failed to establish against the husband any legal ground for a separation.
