What are the Grounds For Divorce in New York?

In the past, the grounds for divorce in the state of New York were limited to allegations of abandonment, adultery, cruel and inhumane treatment, and/or imprisonment. If one party to a marriage wanted a divorce, they must have established at least one of these grounds. All divorces, even uncontested divorce, needed to be based on one of these grounds. New York has since modified the law to allow no-fault divorces for couples who have had irreconcilable differences for at least 6 months.
