Grounds for Divorce
It is important to understand why you are getting a divorce, as certain procedures vary depending on the situation. Below is a quick summary of the most common reasons to help you decide.
01
Adultery
To file for divorce on the grounds of adultery, the person raising the divorce action will need to serve the court papers not only on their spouse but also the person they were having an affair with. If the adultery is not admitted, the person raising the action will also have to prove to the satisfaction of the court that the adultery has been committed.
02
Unreasonable Behaviour
To be divorced on the grounds of unreasonable behaviour, the court has to be satisfied that you could not possibly be expected to live with your spouse, due to unreasonable behaviour such as: the excessive consumption or misuse of drugs and/or alcohol, financial extravagance, mental or physical abuse, violence and controlling behaviour.
03
Separation 1yr with consent
If you have lived apart from your spouse for a period of at least one year and they are willing to sign a form consenting to the divorce then this can be grounds for divorce.
04
Separation for
2yrs
If you have lived apart from your spouse for two years, you do not need their consent to proceed with a divorce. This is the most common reason for divorces in Scotland, as one party may not wish to give their consent prior to this or it may take some time to reach an agreement on financial matters.
