Two women who got hitched days after the Marriage Equality Act in New York will file divorce papers this week

A lesbian couple is set to have the first New York gay divorce, due to file papers on Thursday (28 June).

Two women who have been in a relationship since 2008, and got hitched last summer after the Marriage Equality Act in New York was legalized, will be filing papers this week.

. . .

A couple for just over three years, Marks and Stage tied the knot in The Pop Up Chapel in Central Park.

Stage told the Atlantic Wire Marks had met another woman on the internet. Shortly afterwards, the couple broke up.

However, as New York law states marriages must have been broken down for at least six months before filing for divorce, it is only now the first gay divorces are beginning to happen.

...Row and Wade are EVIL too!!!!

"Wade" is Henry Wade, the Dallas County District Attorney who defended the position that performing an abortion is a criminal act. Why is he evil?

"Row" is actually "Roe" is actually Norma McCorvey, who ultimately came to realize that abortion is barbaric and now fights against it. Is she evil too?

In DE, it is much like a divorce of a real marriage. Marital assets are divided (including debt), the one that earns more pays more. If kids are involved and one parent is the biological parent, the court recognizes the other as a parent only if the child was then adopted by the non bio parent. (I believe that I got that right).

The big difference is that since the Federal gub'mint does not recognize "g@y marriage" retirement funds/pensions are not divided.

Not sure about other states buy lawyers do not get a percentage like in PI cases, they get billable hours based on their hourly rate. So they may have more cases but are limited to how many clients they can take on

If they made a reality TV show of homosexual divorces it would be a top 10 show in no time.

That would not fit the current TV message of homosexuals being the most noble, honest, funny, caring and thoughtful members of our society.

How many of homo couples will ever celebrate their 10 wedding anniversary? I bet that is a rarity.

100 percent yes...if not for her, we would not have abortion. She is the cause of 40 million deaths on her hand. I love how liberals can be nasty and ruin the nation and then say, “Oops...my bad.” Forget. Most evil individual in history.

That's like saying "If not for Columbus, Europeans would never have discovered the Americas."

Her lawyers were waiting for her, or someone else in her situation, to show up so they could start their case.

Could be. I would imagine you are right about someone else ready to go if she were to change her mind. I know a lot of things change because of one person and that quite frankly is a shame. Oh well we must live in this World even with the evil....Perhaps this is our cross that is often talked about....watching our beloved country go down the tubes.

At least now she’s trying to rectify the 5h1+storm she helped start.
