Except in the case of a covenant marriage, in Louisiana, a divorce will be granted upon motion of either spouse upon proof of 180 days' lapse since service or petition and separation of 180 days before filing of motion.
Parties to a covenant marriage may be granted divorce upon proof of:
- two years' separation without reconciliation; one year's separation without reconciliation since entry of judgment of separation;
- 18 months' separation if there are children;
- upon proof the other spouse committed adultery, a felony and has been sentenced to death or hard labor, abandonment of the marital domicile for one year, or abused the petitioner or a child of either party.
