That a couple once spent summers and long weekends together in Sag Harbor has proven to be sufficient grounds to keep their divorce action in Suffolk County—90 miles away from the Manhattan primary residences of both the husband and wife.

"It seems as if the Sag Harbor home was used by both parties, during the marriage, as a summer home and a ‘long weekend home.’ Notwithstanding using the home only in these capacities during the marriage, this use constitutes some degree of permanency," Acting Supreme Court Justice James Quinn in Suffolk County (See Profile) wrote on Feb. 26 in M.R. v. J.R., 6090/2012, denying the wife’s bid to move the action to Manhattan.
