New York Divorce Law
What are the grounds for divorce in New York?

If you are a resident of the state of New York, four of the grounds in New York divorce law are based on "fault" of one of the parties. They are:
1) cruel and inhuman treatment;
2) abandonment for one or more years;
3) imprisonment for three or more consecutive years;
4) adultery (which can include "deviant sexual intercourse").
