A separation between husband and wife, though originally caused by the plaintiff’s desertion of the defendant, was in our opinion “voluntary” for five consecutive years within the principle of Parks v. Parks, 73 App.D.C. 93, 116 F.2d 556. The plaintiff was therefore entitled to a divorce. 49 Stat. 539, § 1, D.C.Code (1940) § 16-403.
