Eastern Pennsylvania: Leaving a Marriage, Regency Style (VIRTUAL)

Leaving a Marriage, Regency Style

Join the Eastern Pennsylvania Region for a talk by attorney James Nagle on "Leaving a Marriage, Regency Style." Jane Austen's novels were all about falling in love and marrying, but what about the other side of that coin? How did one end a Regency marriage? It was typically a long, expensive, and demeaning (especially for the woman) process. Methods ranged from legitimate legal actions (annulment and divorce) to remedies outside the formal legal process, including private agreements, desertion, wife sales, and homicide. Join us as we explore all of these avenues.
