spouse must be a resident for 6 months immediately prior to filing for
divorce. The divorce may be filed for in a county where either spouse
resides. [Delaware Code Annotated; Title 13, Chapters 1504 and 1507]. The
grounds for no-fault divorce in Delaware: 1) Irretrievable breakdown
of the marriage and reconciliation is improbable (a marriage is considered
"irretrievably broken" when it is characterized by one of
the following: a) voluntary separation; b) separation caused by the
other spouse's misconduct or mental illness; or c) separation caused
by incompatibility; and 2) living separate and apart for 6 months because
of incompatibility. (Delaware Code Annotated; Title 13, Chapter 1505]. |
