Corzine signs bill authorizing no-fault divorce

Couples who cite "irreconcilable differences" will be able to get divorced in six months under a bill signed into law yesterday by Gov. Corzine.

State law had required that couples wait 18 months. The bill was approved last year by the Senate and Assembly. It was supported by the New Jersey Bar Association and opposed by the New Jersey Catholic Conference. - AP
