Unless he has an employment contract he is an at will employee per CA law and can be fired with or without cause.

Re: Termination due to divorce
The question can not be answered with a yes or no. Additional facts are needed. How long has he been employed? What is his position / compensation? Does he have a contract? Is he at-will? You will require the skills of an experianced labor attorney to guide you through this complex matter.
