Divorce Courts Strain as English System Doubles Down on Marriages
London reports reveal the Probate and Divorce Division, led by Sir Henry Dake, now operates up to six or seven courts to handle a flood of divorces. Judges loaned from other courts, including Lord Birkenhead and Lord Mersey, sped up proceedings with unprecedented efficiency, including a record 138 divorces in one minute. Costs remain high, with formats like in forma pauperis available for the poor. Critics say the system is too easy and unfair to wives, who must prove cruelty or desertion.
