Uncontested Divorce
What is an Uncontested Divorce?
Today, many people believe uncontested divorce means that there are no unresolved issues. One can still raise very real issues such as adultery, emotional abuse, financial issues, etc. as a cause of the breakdown. Even a divorce with issues can fall under the umbrella phrase of “uncontested divorce.” The language that relates to an “uncontested divorce” is “IRRETRIEVABLE BREAKDOWN OF THE MARRIAGE.”
In short, one can get a divorce simply because they desire to be no longer married to their spouse without verbalizing a specific rationale. But, if appropriate, the specific reasons for the divorce can be made an issue.
