Divorce Introduction


Judicial Separation
[ Publication date Jan 01, 2001 ]

If either party is opposed to divorce on religious or other grounds, but wishes to live apart from the other spouse, then the Court may make a decree of Judicial Separation. Such a decree is obtained by proving the same facts as in a divorce petition.

A decree of judicial separation does not legally end the marriage. Thus neither party can re-marry. However all other remedies and rights consequent upon a divorce are available to parties. Judicially separated spouses are not entitled to claim on the intestacy of the other if that person dies after 1st June 1981.
