DIVORCE:
- Legal Process: Divorce is the legal process of ending a marriage. It involves formally terminating the marital contract between two individuals.
- Grounds for Divorce: Different jurisdictions have various grounds for divorce, which may include irreconcilable differences, adultery, abandonment, or cruelty. Some jurisdictions also have “no-fault” divorce, where couples can divorce without having to prove fault.
- Procedure: The procedure for divorce varies depending on the jurisdiction, but generally involves filing a petition, serving the petition to the spouse, negotiation of terms (such as division of property and custody arrangements), and attending court hearings if necessary.
- Division of Assets: Divorce typically involves the division of marital assets and debts acquired during the marriage. This process can be complex and may require negotiation or court intervention.
- Custody and Support: Divorcing couples with children must also address issues of child custody, visitation rights, and child support. These matters can often be contentious and may require mediation or court intervention to resolve.
- Finalisation: Once all issues are resolved and agreements are reached, the divorce is finalised through a court order, officially ending the marriage
DISSOLUTION OF CIVIL PARTNERSHIPS:
- Legal Status: Civil partnerships are legal relationships available in some jurisdictions for same-sex couples and, in some cases, opposite-sex couples. They provide legal recognition of the relationship without the formalities of marriage.
- Process: The process of dissolving a civil partnership is similar to divorce, involving the legal termination of the partnership.
- Grounds for Dissolution: Like divorce, dissolution of civil partnerships may be granted on various grounds, depending on the jurisdiction, which may include irretrievable breakdown, unreasonable behavior, or separation.
- Procedure: The procedure typically involves filing a dissolution petition, similar to a divorce petition, and addressing issues such as property division and arrangements for any children of the partnership.
- Legal Rights and Responsibilities: Dissolving a civil partnership involves addressing legal rights and responsibilities, such as financial support and the division of property.
- Finalisation: Once all matters are resolved, the dissolution is finalised through a court order, officially ending the civil partnership.
