What grounds are required for divorce?
The term “divorce” has been known to the general public for many years and is well-recognized. The name of this procedure has been officially changed in California to “dissolution” of marriage. California law dissolves marriages based on irreconcilable differences and does not determine fault. A “no-fault marriage dissolution” means that the court will not want to know which party was right or which was wrong, except where it bears directly on the issue of child custody or parental access.
