Abstract

The article discusses the proposal of New York legislators to amend the state's divorce law to allow couples to file for divorce without raising accusations or citing derogatory remarks against their partner. The current New York law only allows divorce on the ground of inhuman treatment, abandonment, imprisonment of partner, adultery, voluntary conversion or court order conversion. Assemblywoman Helene Weinstein says that the Senate is deciding weather to amend the Domestic Relations Law.
