> h3. Code Sample (copy-pasteable)
> {code:python}
> import pyarrow.parquet as pq
> pq.read_table(None)
> {code}
> h3. Description
> The above snippet will produce a Segmentation Fault, which is highly
> undesirable. The reason I discovered this, was I had a function that was
> supposed to return a file path, but on my first iteration I forgot to return.
> Thus, when I ran my module with
> {code:python}
> pq.read_table(generate_fp()){code}
> it produced a Segmentation Fault.
> h3. Expected Output
> Ideally this will raise an *ValueError*, indicating to the user that *None*
> is an invalid source/file path. In my opinion, this is much more desirable
> than a violent segfault.
