What is the test for making a finding of marital status by a magistrate?

Saskatchewan, Canada


The following excerpt is from Fife v. Fife, 1964 CanLII 350 (SK QB):

Although I can see the possibility of a number of difficulties arising when a magistrate has made a finding with respect to marital status, nevertheless I feel that the principle enunciated in Armstrong v. Armstrong, supra, is the proper one to adopt.
