Collateral attack by husband’s son on divorce degree rendered in Nevada, on the ground that neither party had satisfied Nevada’s jurisdictional residency requirement, was barred by Full Faith and Credit Clause; both husband and wife participated in divorce proceedings, wife attested to Nevada’s limited jurisdictional requirements and husband did not raise a jurisdictional challenge, spouses were bound by the decree, and decree was not susceptible to collateral attack by son under Nevada statute.
