ELIZABETH, N.J. — Lawyers representing the nation’s first openly gay governor and his estranged wife ended the first day of their scheduled divorce trial reporting progress in settlement talks.
The talks are to resume today afternoon. Testimony was delayed to allow the discussions to take place.
“We are happy to report on behalf of both of our clients that they have made progress toward settling their case,” said John Post, a lawyer for Dina Matos McGreevey, who read from a joint statement issued by him and Stephen Haller, a lawyer for Governor McGreevey.
