What are the legal grounds for same-sex divorce in New York?
In New York, same-sex couples can file for divorce using the same legal grounds as opposite-sex couples. This includes both no-fault grounds, such as an irretrievable breakdown of the marriage for at least six months, and fault grounds like cruel and inhuman treatment, abandonment, adultery, and imprisonment.
