Why does the law provide for no-fault divorces?
No-fault divorces are considered a more humane and realistic way to end a marriage. Husbands and wives who are divorcing usually are suffering enough without adding more fuel to the emotional fires by trying to prove who did what to whom. The laws of no-fault divorce recognize that human relationships are complex and that it is difficult to prove that a marriage broke down solely because of what one person did. The Court will only consider the issues and terms of the divorce, not the misconduct or reason for the divorce.
