I recently heard a news story from KNX Radio in Los Angeles that there is a petition drive to put an initiative on the California ballot to ban all divorces. The expressed reason is that divorce is a sin.
The petition drive may, or may not, be a joke. I'll leave it up to you to decide whether to sign the petition when it comes to a shopping center near you. I could always give up family law and start practicing criminal law again - without divorce, violence may be the only way out if your spouse doesn't have the common curtesy to die of natural causes - that might spike the crime business. :)
Those of use who practiced law when divorce required proof of fault remember that divorces still happened, but they were even more messy than they are today. It will be fun to watch the debate, however.
