It's a page two type story that came out today via SWR (public TV in Germany).....over a Sharia law divorce.
About four years ago, some couple had come into Germany and in the midst of chaos....the husband decided 'enough' and divorced his wife with the normal Sharia law method (with no paperwork, and no German court involvement). The German authorities got called into the situation and told the guy....no, that just wasn't going to work in Germany.
So this legal case has been working itself through the German courts, and this week reached a verdict in the EU Supreme Court. "No", it's just not going to be accepted in the EU. You need legal German paperwork to divorce your wife or husband.
It's not much of a shocker. I think most German legal minds kinda predicted this, and the guy exhausted just about every single method possible in the EU.
