ATLANTA - A freshman state lawmaker from northeast Georgia is helping sponsor a bill that would extend the waiting time for divorce in the state.
The bill, co-sponsored by Senator Nancy Schaefer of White County, would extend the waiting period from 30 days to six months for an uncontested divorce of a couple with children and to four months if no children are involved.
Another bill introduced Wednesday could lead to a loss of marital property for people who commit adultery.
