The Challenges of Divorce Mediation
Recently, a Dallas man filed for divorce. While this may seem commonplace, it wasn’t because this man was married to another man. The couple was married in Massachusetts and was finding that it was going to be a hard road in trying to obtain a divorce in Texas.
The court in Texas refused to hear the case and Attorney General Greg Abbot said that because Texas law prohibits same-sex marriages and civil unions, the man could not seek a divorce in Texas as Texas does not recognize the union to begin with.
