A lawyer could tell you but:\nThere are only two ways to get a divorce in North Carolina. The first and most common way to obtain a North Carolina divorce is to prove a one year separation. The other way to obtain a North Carolina divorce is to prove incurable insanity. Most North Carolina divorces are obtained after proving a one year separation. The divorce in North Carolina is typically granted within about 60 days of the date of filing for the divorce.\n\nDivorce from bed and board is a rarely used, fault-based action, usually brought by an injured spouse to get the court to order the other spouse out of the residence.

that depends on the state you are in.  Some states have do-it-yourself divorces that all you have to do is pay the filing fees.  Other have legal aids that help you fill out the paper work and file it, again just paying the fees.  It depends on the state you live in but the best place to find out and start with is your local legal aid.

=Texas there are two grounds for a no-fault divorce. (1) the marriage has become insupportable because of discord or conflict of personalities that has destroyed the legitimate ends of the marriage relationship and prevents any reasonable expectation of reconciliation; or (2) living separate and apart without cohabitation for 3 years. [Texas Codes Annotated; Family Code, Chapters 6.001 and 6.006].\n\nClick on the link below for a very informative site. Best wishes

Because they are two different things -- adultery may be against he law (although no state punishes the act) but the state will still establish divorce procedures (which is what "no fault" means -- it doesn't mean that nobody is to blame for anything) which allow parties to get divorced without officially assigning blame for the failed marriage.\n\nBesides, I can well imagine a case where, for example, a wife eventually has a brief affair after living for years with a distant and uncaring husband -- is the person who had the affair more at fault?  I don't think we need the state to decide that for the parties.

Legal separation is not the same as divorce.  If you want to remarry you need to get a divorce.

this is the law as it reads.  I hope you can figure it out from here.\n\nArt. 2375. Effect of judgment\n\nA. Except as provided in Paragraph C of this Article, a judgment decreeing separation of property terminates the regime of community property retroactively to the day of the filing of the petition or motion therefor, without prejudice to rights validly acquired in the interim between filing of the petition or motion and rendition of judgment.\n\nB. If a judgment has been rendered on the ground that the spouses have lived separate and apart either after the filing of a petition for divorce without having reconciled or for six months, a reconciliation reestablishes the regime of community property between the spouses retroactively to the day of the filing of the motion or petition therefor, unless prior to the reconciliation the spouses execute a matrimonial agreement to the contrary. This agreement need not be approved by the court and is effective toward third persons when filed for registry in the manner provided by Article 2332. The reestablishment of the community is effective toward third persons when a notice thereof is filed for registry in the same manner.\n\nC. If a judgment is rendered on the ground that the spouses were living separate and apart after the filing of a petition for divorce without having reconciled, the judgment shall be effective retroactively to the date the original petition for divorce was filed, without prejudice to rights validly acquired in the interim between filing of the petition or motion and rendition of judgment. All subsequent pleadings or motions involving matters incidental to the divorce must be filed in the first filed suit.

Below is a link which will take you to a site provided by the courts of California for self help in divorce, separation and/or annulment. \n\nhttp://www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp/family/divorce/\n\nYou do not necessarily have to be re[presented by a lawyer in divorce proceeding though it is always best to seek legal counsel. Specifically if divorce is contested and there are issues regarding division of real property and assets.\n\nHope this helps!!

Well, in Catholicism, divorce is the inability on both parts to work out the marriage and is widely not accepted purely because both refuse to make the marriage work.  The annulment however, is a single person within the marriage had not intention from the beginning of the marriage to ever make the marriage work.  In Protestant churches, divorce is acceptable if it is because of unfaithfulness.  Annulment would then be the shared determination that the marriage will not work because of one's own personal beliefs and not the others.

Did you bf tell you he is leaving her or is it already in the works? 90% of the time, the husband never leaves the wife, and will just string along the mistress as long as possible.When the mistress is gone he finds another and does the same thing to her, telling her he is leaving soon....but "the kids" and this and that.\n\nIf she finds out about it, yes she can bring it up in a court and he will get nothing. She will automatically get custody of any children they have together, she may also request whatever she wants for visitation and he better pray he gets a judge who's never been cheated on, because I don't care who it is, a judge will do whatever they want to someone they just don't like, within the legal limit of the law.\n\nAlso, I don't know for sure about North Carolina, but in some states, the wife can actually sue the mistress for the break up of the marriage, for financial compensation.\n\nYeah what Dwain said "Alien of Affection" she could sue you for that.
