Divorcing Couple Ordered by Judge to Swap Facebook Passwords

Dividing homes, cars, and kids in a divorce is oh-so-last year. The new trend in divorce today is handing over each other's Facebook passwords.

That's what a judge in Connecticut has ordered:

At the end of September, Judge Kenneth Shluger ordered that the attorneys for Stephen and Courtney Gallion exchange “their client’s Facebook and dating website passwords.”

Everyone knows that evidence from social networking sites comes in handy for lawsuits and divorces. Attorneys usually get that material by visiting someone’s page or asking that they turn over evidence from their page, not by signing into their accounts. But judges are sometimes forcing litigants to hand over the passwords to their Facebook accounts.
