A fault divorce is typically pursued when
one spouse wants the court to consider the
other spouses conduct. A fault divorce is
often sought when one of the following is
the cause for the divorce: abuse, cruelty,
abandonment, imprisonment, drug or alcohol
dependency, insanity, illegal behavior,
adultery or impotence. When claiming a
fault divorce, proof must be supplied to
support the claims made. A spouse who is
able to prove the other’s fault may receive
more of the marital property and possibly
more support/maintenance. Fault divorces
may be processed quickly as most states do
not require a separation period as they may
require in no-fault divorces.
