Irreconcilable differences or no-fault means that the divorce is granted because the parties no longer get along and have differences that cannot be resolved. Fault grounds means that the conduct of a party caused the marriage to break down. Examples of fault grounds are adultery, habitual drunkenness, emotional abuse, and physical abuse.
