Hawke v. Hawke

ARCHIBALD, Justice.

The judgment of the District Court granting a divorce to Mr. Hawke on the grounds of irreconcilable marital differences was appealed by Mrs. Hawke to the Superior Court, where the judgment was affirmed. Asserting that the District Court (1) erred in giving retrospective application to amendments to Maine’s divorce law regarding irreconcilable marital differences and (2) abused its discretion in refusing to grant a continuance, Mrs. Hawke filed a timely appeal of the Superior Court affirmance.

We deny the appeal.
