NJ court appearance for comic Artie Lange delayed
Court Alerts
A New Jersey court appearance for "Howard Stern Show" radio personality Artie Lange (LANG) on a charge of driving under the influence of an intoxicant has been rescheduled for next month.
The comedian and author of the best-selling book "Too Fat to Fish" originally was scheduled to appear in court Wednesday for a pretrial conference. That date is changed to Sept. 9.
Lange was charged following a minor traffic accident last month in Toms River, about 50 miles south-southwest of New York City.
Police say Lange's vehicle struck the back of another vehicle. They say no one was injured.
Defense lawyer Michael Grasso entered a not guilty plea for Lange on July 14. He says the 41-year-old Lange passed an alcohol screening test after the accident.

Grounds for Divorce in Ohio - Sylkatis Law, LLC
A divorce in Ohio is filed when there is typically “fault” by one of the parties and party not at “fault” seeks to end the marriage. A court in Ohio may grant a divorce for the following reasons:
• Willful absence of the adverse party for one year
• Adultery
• Extreme cruelty
• Fraudulent contract
• Any gross neglect of duty
• Habitual drunkenness
• Imprisonment in a correctional institution at the time of filing the complaint
• Procurement of a divorce outside this state by the other party
Additionally, there are two “no-fault” basis for which a court may grant a divorce:
• When the parties have, without interruption for one year, lived separate and apart without cohabitation
• Incompatibility, unless denied by either party
However, whether or not the the court grants the divorce for “fault” or not, in Ohio the party not at “fault” will not get a bigger slice of the marital property.
