New York Finally Allows No-Fault Divorce

July 2, 2010

It’s about time.

The New York legislature yesterday legalized no-fault divorce. The state is the last in the nation to do so.

No-fault divorce allows someone couples to get divorced without having to prove the wrong-doing of the other person. In practice, it lowers the costs of getting divorced because couples don’t have to gather evidence about each other’s conduct.
