Grounds for Divorce in Texas

Texas law acknowledges various grounds for divorce, encompassing both no-fault and fault-based reasons.

A no-fault divorce typically proceeds under “insupportability,” citing irreconcilable differences without the need to assign blame.

 

Fault-based grounds include:

 

  • Continuous separation for three years or more without cohabitation
  • Confinement in a mental institution for three years with little hope of recovery
  • Cruel and abusive treatment
  • Willful abandonment for at least one year
  • Felony conviction and imprisonment
  • Proven instances of adultery
