While there are many reasons to get a divorce, the Utah Code provides the following
legal justifications for
getting a divorce:
- impotency
- willful desertion for more than one year
- adultery
- willful neglect of food, shelter, clothing
- habitual drunkenness
- cruel treatment causing bodily harm or mental distress
- insanity
- conviction of a felony
- irreconcilable differences
Most divorces fall under irreconcilable differences
unless the fault is egregious enough to warrant litigating for custody,
alimony, or other financial purposes. For
example, if your spouse committed adultery, but does not have the ability to
pay alimony or there are no children involved, then litigating over adultery may
not be financially sound (although it may be enjoyable to have your spouse
answer questions about the adultery).
