Julian v. Julian

Holdings:

            The Virginia Court made the following holding:

  • Although a judgment obtained by extrinsic fraud is void and, therefore, subject to direct or collateral attack, a judgment obtained by intrinsic fraud is merely voidable and can be challenged only by direct appeal or by a direct attack in an independent proceeding. Intrinsic fraud includes perjury or other means of obscuring facts presented before the court and whose truth or falsity as to the issues being litigated are passed upon by the trier of fact.
  • On review, an appellate court must consider the evidence in the light most favorable to a party prevailing in a trial court. Where the trial court's decision is based upon an ore tenus hearing, its determination will not be disturbed on appeal unless it is plainly wrong or without evidence in the record to support it. Because the trial judge is in a position to see and hear the witnesses, his or her findings are entitled to an appropriate degree of respect.
