No Fault Divorce

A no fault divorce is one in which neither spouse blames the other for the end of the marriage. The couple seeking a no-fault divorce merely must assert that they are incompatible, or that irreconcilable differences exist between them. In a no-fault divorce, the court grants the dissolution of marriage without requiring either party to show evidence that the other spouse breached the marital contract.
