NATURE OF THE CASE: Wife (W) filed a motion to oppose jurisdiction of a bill of complaint for divorce filed by Husband (H) who served her with process in his state of residence.

FACTS: H and W were married in Houston, Texas in 1988. In 1995, they purchased a house in Maryland and maintained this house as their marital residence until the couple separated in 1996. H has resided in Reston, Virginia. W has continued to reside in the marital home in Maryland with the couple's minor son. On March 13, 1999, W was personally served in the Commonwealth of Virginia with a Bill of Complaint for Divorce as she stepped out of a car at Dulles Airport. W was scheduled to travel on a flight from Dulles to Houston, Texas. H made the travel arrangements for W's flight.
