Grounds for Divorce
There are only two “grounds” (acceptable reasons) for a divorce to be granted in Florida.
- The marriage is considered to be “irretrievably broken” - In this case, the couple has decided that the marriage is no longer functioning and there is no expectation of repair.
- Mental incapacity of one of the spouses - In this case, this must exist for at least three years before the divorce can be filed.
Both parties are involved in the process for proving grounds for divorce.
