1Opinion of the Court

This is an action under our bastardy statute. (Gen. Stat. [1930] § 5867, as amd.) The plaintiff, a married woman separated from her husband, alleges that on September 5, 1942, a son was born to her as the result of her cohabitation with the defendant, a married man separated from his wife.

In preliminary proceedings, conducted before a justice of the peace, probable cause to support the plaintiff's claim of pregnancy was found to exist, and the defendant was ordered to appear before the Court of Common Pleas for Fairfield County at its session commencing on the first Tuesday of May, 1942.
