Re: divorce

There is NO such thing as automatic divorce in SC. The other spouse can be gone for six weeks or sixty years and a divorce will not automatically occur.

If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.StevensFirm.com). I wish you the best of luck.
