    Online divorce extended in £1bn justice system shake-up

    All married couples will be able to apply for a divorce online as part of a £1bn change to the justice system.

    The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) said the scheme, which was being tested at three sites in the UK, would be rolled out across the country to allow all uncontested divorces to be conducted using an online application process.

    A “smart form”, which tailors questions based on the circumstances of the marriage breakdown, will help the MoJ’s attempt to save £250m through a reduction in paperwork and processing time.

    A spokeswoman for HM Courts and Tribunals Service said: “We have a world-leading legal system and are investing over £1bn to reform and enhance our courts to deliver swifter justice.

    “We have launched the first divorce application services online at three sites and will be extending the testing over the coming months. These measures will simplify the process for divorce applicants and help progress applications quickly.”

    Under the current system, those seeking a divorce must fill out paper forms and send them to a court for consideration. Applicants must submit a petition which is served to their spouse, who must agree to the divorce by signing the document or state their reasons for contesting. They must also provide documents including marriage certificate, financial agreements and reasons for divorce.

      The country could save millions if marriage automatically expired after five years and had to be renewed.

        Funny how many CUKers are defined by one or two words:

        BP - divorce
        aTW - sofas, squirrels
        Wilmslow - mum
        xoggoth - huge bottoms
        etc.

        We should have a full list at right for newbies.

                Can you default field values from your last instance of the form? And set up an annual standing order?
