Divorce or dissolution of marriage is the final termination of a marriage, canceling the legal duties and responsibilities of marriage and dissolving the bonds of matrimony between two persons. In most countries, divorce requires the sanction of a judge or other authority in a legal process to complete a divorce.

In western countries, a divorce does not declare a marriage null and void, as in an annulment, but divorce cancels the marital status of the parties. Where monogamy is law, this allows each to marry another. Where polygamy is legal, this allows the woman to marry another.

Divorce laws vary considerably around the world. Divorce is not permitted in some countries, such as in Malta and in the Philippines, though an annulment is permitted.

The legal process for divorce may also involve issues of spousal support, child custody, child support, distribution of property and division of debt, though these matters are usually only ancillary or consequential to the dissolution of the marriage.

How to get divorce after judicial separation is granted?
Q. I had been granted for Judicial separation in July2007. Almost 1year & 9months had passed. How can I proceed for getting divorce now. Is there any provision according to Indian Law that I get the Divorce by Default, as it has been long time after getting the Separation Orders?
Asked by chinnary - Sun May 17 14:52:38 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. If there has not been resumption of conjugal relationship within one year of the passing of the decree of judicial separation, you can apply for divorce on this ground itself. There is no way that you straight away get divorce by default on this ground as the decree of divorce can only be passed by court being fully satisfied that the ground for divorce has been fulfilled by the parties to the marriage. As far divorce by default or ex-parte divorce is concerned, that is possible only if a proper notice for the divorce proceedings in the court has been served on the respondent & he fails to defend the same.

How much does a divorce in California cost?
Q. We are getting divorced, and we're doing it ourselves with no lawyers or legal BS. All we want to do is file and get it over with legally. Does anyone know what the fees in California would be for the most basic divorce?
Asked by Schiess - Sat Feb 21 00:12:56 2009 - - 7 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It depends on which county you file in, but California does have a form you can use to waive the filing fee. It's called a "Application for Waiver of Court Fees and Costs". Don't count on getting your fees waived though. If you need more information about the process or the form and everything else you need to file your own divorce in California then visit -

Australian divorce property rights - Does the law change from state to state?
Q. Looking to find good information on divorce laws in Australia - please point in right direction. Does it make any difference what state you live in - or what country you were originally married in (Canada)? What is the best state to get divorced in if you are male and primary money maker? No kids involved. Both parties working - one makes significantly/saves more than the other.
Asked by Terry M - Mon Nov 17 12:26:24 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Under the Constitution of Australia, marriage is one area which is handled by the Federal Govt, so it makes no difference which State you live in. The Federal courts - the Family Court and the Federal Magistrates Court - follow the same precedents nationwide. For more info, go to familycourt.gov.au and austlii.edu.au

Divorce or dissolution of marriage is the ending of a marriage before the death of either spouse.

And when a marriage does last forever with love alive, it is a miracle." Peggy O'Mara, Mothering, Fall 1989
