1 Jan 1857 Jahr - Matrimonial Causes Act 1857
Beschreibung:
Establishes divorce courts (The Court for Divorce and Matrimonial Causes). It entitles couples to divorce without the need to obtain permission via a private Act of Parliament. The grounds, however, are different for men and women: a husband can divorce his wife on the grounds of adultery; the woman, on the other hand, must prove adultery and cruelty or desertion.
