In A Divorce, What Counts As Desertion Or Abandonment? Are They The Same Thing?

January 3

While desertion and abandonment are usually used interchangeably in divorce cases, there is actually a distinction between the two. “Desertion” is the breach of the duties stemming from being married.  First, there must be a break from living together as spouses (“cohabitation”).  Second, there must be intent to desert in the mind of the deserter. continue reading…

Do I Have To Allow Visitation If I Am Not Receiving Child Support?
