Gay Divorcee

An Essex County probate judge has dissolved a gay civil union.
Quote:
"A careful reading of [the two decisions] provides that same-sex couples should be afforded the same rights and responsibilities as those of opposite-sex married couples," wrote Judge John P. Cronin. "Opposite sex couples who marry are afforded the opportunity to extinguish their legal relationship through the mechanism of divorce. Reasoning follows therefrom that same-sex couples who enter into legal relationships should also be allowed to dissolve their legal relationships."
