In the case of Sherrer v. Sherrer, 1947, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on a matter involving divorce jurisdiction and full faith and credit between states. The couple in question had moved from Massachusetts to Florida where they obtained a divorce; however, upon returning to Massachusetts, Mrs. Sherrer sought to have their Florida divorce invalidated claiming that her husband had misrepresented his residency status in Florida at the time of their separation which was required for obtaining a valid divorce there. The court held that once a state with proper jurisdiction has made its final decision regarding marital status or custody issues within its borders, other states must respect this ruling under the Full Faith and Credit Clause of the Constitution (Article IV). This clause requires each state to recognize public acts, records and judicial proceedings from every other state. Therefore even if Mr.Sherrer may have lied about his residency during their separation period in order for them both to obtain an easier "no-fault" style quickie-divorce available only in certain jurisdictions like Nevada or Florida at that time - it didn't matter because once granted by one competent court another cannot overturn it without violating constitutional law.

In the dissenting opinion for Sherrer v. Sherrer, Justice Frankfurter argued that the Court's decision undermined the principles of federalism and comity by allowing a state court to disregard another state's divorce decree without any substantial evidence of fraud or wrongdoing. He contended that this ruling would lead to uncertainty and confusion in family law matters, as it could potentially allow parties to relitigate issues already decided in other jurisdictions. Furthermore, he expressed concern about the potential harm caused by such practices on innocent third parties who may rely on these decrees in good faith. Therefore, he believed that unless there is clear proof of collusion or fraud which undermines public policy, states should respect each other’s judicial proceedings under Full Faith and Credit Clause.
