Retiring Georgia Chief Justice Calls for Family Restoration by Ending Disposable Marriage

This extremely powerful piece from the Justice Leah Ward Sears, former Chief Justice of the GA Supreme Court, on the importance of fixing our society's acceptance of divorce is a must read for every lawyer. Her commentary is personal, insightful, and driven… maybe even calling out the destiny of potential family law attorneys.

    Home-wreckers operate with impunity in 41 out of 50 states, but not in North Carolina. Alienation of affections and criminal conversation are still valid causes of action in the Tarheel state, along Hawaii, Illinois and six other states. Elizabeth Edwards, cancer-stricken wife of adulterous former U.S. Senator and Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards, has threatened an Alienation of Affections suit against her husband's co-adulterer. The viability of the Alienation of Affections cause of action was confirmed recently when a wife won a $9 million judgment against her husband's seducer, a college administrator and academic.
