Today's Barbri class was on Domestic Relations, and it probably counted as one of the more ribald Barbri lectures to date. Prof. Schechter did our Torts lecture as well and was hilarious then too.
First hypo:
Fraud is a voidable grounds of annulment. Fraudulently representing your sexual proclivities counts. The example he gave concerned a couple who waited until marriage to have sex. One night at dinner the two of them talked about sex and Wanda asked Harry what he envisioned their sex life would be like. Harry replied that he saw them having regular, all-American sex.
Moving on to the wedding night, Wanda changes into a negligee and when she comes into the bedroom, there Harry sits on the bed wearing Pampers and holding a bottle of Wesson oil.
Now this is voidable because Wanda could freak out and rush out and get an annulment
OR
she could waive the fraud claim by smiling and saying, "Someone's been a naughty boy..." etc
Next hypo:
Physical impotency is a grounds for divorce in Massachusetts. It must be incurable. The professor said that the guy can't offer a defense by saying something like "Yeah, judge, but check it out, I can lick my eyebrows."
{Pause}
"Explain that one to your neighbor."
Dirty dirty. And probably a sign of my mental state that I'm still giggling. Apparently I've descended to 12 year-old boy.
Last day of class and the Bar is in 12 1/2 days. Argh-a! (that's for Santa Cruz Jenn)
