In tax class at LSU about 12 years ago, our teacher told us of a couple he knew that got divorced on December 31st every year to avoid the marriage penalty and then remarried in January.

Divorce takes 6 months. Seems like they'd be spending most of their time in court.

They would spend more on legal fees than they would save in taxes
