00:00--:--

Minnesota legislator Allan Spear details the three things no-fault divorce bill does…changes terminology (words have less of a fault connotation than traditional terms); removes requirement for corroborating witnesses; and removes current grounds for divorce (substitutes single ground, irretrievable breakdown of marriage relationship).

Spear states the idea is to create a situation where divorce proceedings are less hostile than they are now.
