The opinion

HAMITER, Justice

(dissenting in part and concurring in part).

Since the record fails to affirmatively show that defendant (the wife) did not establish the requisite domicile in Las Vegas, the presumption that the Nevada court had jurisdiction in her divorce action of the subject matter and the persons has not been overcome. I am of the opinion, therefore, that defendant’s Nevada divorce decree should be recognized and given full faith and credit in this cause. Otherwise, I concur in .the holding of the majority.
