Question:
If the wife doesn't want a divorce but the husband does can he still file a petition? Will a case like this be a long case?
Answer:
I am not licensed in Texas and therefore cannot address the laws of that State directly. Some jurisdictions are no fault divorce States. In that location it would not matter if one party did not want a divorce, the divorce would be granted. Other jurisdictions require that the parties show that the marriage is irretrievably broken and often have specific standards that must be met. If fault is required to be shown it can delay the process.
