Holdings:

            The Virginia Court made the following holding:

  • In England , formerly, divorces were not allowed for desertion. The only remedy for such a wrong was a suit in the ecclesiastical courts for restitution of conjugal rights. But, those courts, while requiring the offending party to return and live with the libellant, never undertook to compel the granting of sexual intercourse. They made a clear distinction between marital intercourse (sexual intercourse) and marital cohabitation (living together). The latter was a right to be enforced by the courts; the former was a right to be enforced only in foro conscientiae.
