What is the difference between a fault and no fault divorce?
The difference between a fault and a no fault divorce is the grounds for the divorce. In the first case, the spouse filing the divorce claims the other spouse is responsible for ruining the marriage, while in the other case no blame is placed on either party.
Can a person refuse to get divorced?
Some resisting spouses can make the divorce process very difficult by refusing to sign the necessary divorce papers or by completely failing to respond to a request for a divorce. Others do so by hiding or trying to avoid “service” (meaning in-person delivery) of the divorce paperwork.
Can you deny someone a divorce?
Unfortunately, marriages break down, and in some cases, one spouse may refuse to agree to a divorce. They may not accept that the relationship is over. While others may believe, getting divorced conflicts with their beliefs.
What if you don’t want to get divorced?
What if You Don’t Want a Divorce? If you don’t want a divorce but your spouse does, you should consider suggesting counseling or a trial separation. If your spouse is committed to divorce and not interested in exploring alternatives, your husband or wife can file for divorce even if you do not want to end the marriage.
