Without Truth There Is No Justice
|
The term divorce refers to the dissolution or the
legal end of a marriage. Each state has its own
requirements governing when a divorce may be
granted, including a residency requirement and
grounds or a reason for the divorce. There are both
fault-based and no-fault based grounds for divorce.
These, too, vary from state to state; although
"irreconcilable differences" and "irretrievable
breakdown" are common no-fault grounds for
divorce. The 50 states also vary with respect to the
division of the marital property, alimony, child
custody and visitation, and child support.
