Questão jurídica principal
Whether the wife's right to be heard and good-faith rights were violated by direct notification to the parties instead of counsel.
Decisão extraída
The complaint is rejected because, despite the court's questionable change of practice, the wife and her counsel failed to act with due diligence and cannot rely on the procedural defect.
Fundamentação extraída
A party represented in proceedings must promptly verify the status of the case when direct notices are received. Any defect in notification is limited by the principle of good faith.
