Best Answer

In Vermont, you would file a petition for divorce, but there is a one-year residency requirement. In Florida, the state does not recognize civil unions, not even for the purpose of divorce. In California, the civil union is valid and the partner who lives in California should be able to dissolve the Vermont civil union in a California state court by filing a petition for divorce.

California still does recognize same-sex marriages, although since Proposition 8, no new marriage licenses may be issued to same-sex couples. A ruling from the Supreme Court on the constitutionality of Proposition 8 is imminent and experts predict it will be struck down sometime between November 26, 2012 and June 30, 2013. It is not necessary, however, for Proposition 8 to be struck down in order to obtain a same-sex divorce in California.

Can Florida stop you from getting insurance for you domestic partner if the insurance company said it was all right?

No. Some insurance companies offer domestic partner coverage in Florida and you are free to purchase such a policy.
