California could go from a no-fault divorce state, to a no divorce state if a man has his way. According to the LA Times, John Marcotte has up until March 22, 2010 to get almost 700,000 signatures of registered voters to get his initiative banning divorce in California on the ballot next year. Here is the initiative.
ELIMINATES THE LAW ALLOWING MARRIED COUPLES TO DIVORCE. INITIATIVE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. Changes the California Constitution to eliminate the ability of married couples to get divorced in California. Preserves the ability of married couples to seek an annulment. Summary of estimate by Legislative Analyst and Director of Finance of fiscal impact on state and local government: Savings to the state of up to hundreds of millions of dollars annually for support of the court system due to the elimination of divorce proceedings.
Couples can still get their marriages annulled, but they cannot get divorced if he gets his initiative passed into law. While part of me wants to think that this whole thing is just a big joke, California is not as liberal as we would like to think. Remember last year they said no to gay marriage, maybe now those same people will say no to ending marriages. What will Hollywood celebrities do if they can’t divorce?

So remember in 2007 when Robin Wright Penn filed for divorce and then they got back together and everything seemed great? Well not anymore because according to Extra, Sean Penn has filed for separation from Robin. No reason was given why the two might be ending their almost 13 year marriage this time. I think they will get back together again, don’t you?

CSI actress Marg Helgenberger who is married to SAG President Alan Rosenberg…or should I say who was married to…because she filed for divorce today according to OK! Magazine. When news broke that Marg had left her husband in December it was about the same time that SAG Strike talks started heating up. Now that she is officially divorcing him, I wonder if that means those talks will once again be heating up as a distraction for him?
The two met when he guest starred on Ryan's Hope, but did not star dating until she met him again at a bank when she moved to LA. The two had been married for almost 20 years and their only child moved out to go to school last year.
