Till death: McGreevey divorce trial begins Tuesday. “Legal analysts expect New Jersey’s former first couple will approach new lows, even for divorce court. ‘I’m not going to tell you this is going to be the worst case ever in the history of New Jersey divorces,’ said Charles Abut, a matrimonial lawyer who operates the New Jersey Family Law blog. ‘But I think if you asked longtime matrimonial lawyers, ‘Give me the your top 10 worst,’ this one is going to appear on everyone’s list.’ The proceedings, which are expected to last up to six weeks in Elizabeth’s Union County Courthouse, have been divided into three sections. Superior Court Judge Karen Cassidy has said she will rule separately on each part: Custody of the couple’s 6-year-old daughter, Jacqueline; the amount of child support and alimony McGreevey must pay Matos McGreevey; and, finally, Matos McGreevey’s claim McGreevey defrauded her, tricking her into a marriage of political convenience even though he knew he was gay.”

Indiewire talks to gay filmmaker Arthur Dong: “As a gay Asian American filmmaker I’d be naive to think that anti-gay bigotry and racism has not affected the opportunities or lack thereof in terms of my work. But the way I confront it is to first acknowledge whatever factors I think might be there, and then forge ahead anyway with that knowledge. We all have thrust upon us unwanted external forces that we have no control over, whoever we are, and if we allow them to be barriers (excuses?) to our goals, then we may as well give it up because perseverance, passion, and stamina is a must for independent filmmakers.”

Australian Capitol Territory forced to back down on civil partnerships: “The ACT decision comes as the deeply religious Mr Rudd faces growing attack from Christian groups over his Government’s decision to remove discrimination against gays from all other federal laws. Mr Corbell yesterday accused the Rudd Government of breaking a commitment to the states and territories to allow them to legislate as they saw fit.
