Quote: “Unless an emergency develops in a marriage that requires immediate court action to protect a spouse or child, new divorce cases cannot be filed in New York. An emergency would include domestic violence that requires orders of protection,” celebrity divorce lawyer Christopher C. Melcher shared. “Risk to a property is not an emergency because things can be replaced, especially by someone wealthy like Mary-Kate.”
