M.T.L. v. T.P.L.

HORSEY, Justice:

The pivotal issue in this appeal from Family Court is whether the Trial Court obtained divorce jurisdiction over respondent (defendant), a non-resident of Delaware, by substituted service as provided under 13 Del.C. § 1508(d). Respondent appeals the Court’s denial of her motion to vacate a final decree of divorce after establishing that she had received no notice by *511mail of the divorce proceeding instituted by her husband and that she had no knowledge of it until some four months after entry of the decree. Finding 13 Del.C. § 1508(d) not to have been complied with, we reverse.

I
