continuously resided

continuously resided
Remaining in a place without a change of legal residence, which does not mean that there has not been a temporary absence, or even somewhat of an extended period of absence, so long as the intent to change residence was not present. Allan v Allan, 132 Conn 1, 42 A2d 347, 159 ALR 493. Under an immigration act providing for exemption from exclusion in cases of five years of continuous residence, such continuous residence cannot be made up by tacking together two or more visits to this country, each of which was less than five years, although continuous residence in a place does not always mean continually remaining in that place, "residence" not being synonymous with "immovability." See United States v Curran (CA2 NY) 11 F2d 468.
