Divorce ProceedingsA court can dissolve a marriage by issuing a decree of divorce. This can happen only if the marriage has broken down irretrievably on one of the following grounds: · adultery; · unreasonable behaviour; · desertion of at least two years; · two years' separation where the divorce is by consent; and · five years' separation. The procedure is for one party to petition for divorce. A county court districtjudge considers the evidence and, if the grounds for divorce are proven, the judge pronounces a decree nisi which is a provisional measure. Six weeks later the petitioner can apply for a decree absolute, which is the final measure. The decree absolute has to be issued by the county court before either party can re-marry. If the case is a complex, difficult or grave one, it can be transferred to the High Court Family Division. A decree of divorce must be pronounced in open court, but a procedure for most undefended cases dispenses with the need to give evidence in court and permits written evidence to be considered by the district judge.
