California Divorce Laws California

There are two basic types of divorce law: fault and not fault. The states that use a no fault system do not make it a requirement that there be a clear reason for the divorce. It is often enough to state that the couple has irreconcilable differences.

States that use a "fault" system require that the party seeking the divorce show a reason (such as adultery or abuse) why the divorce is appropriate.
