Grounds for Divorce
Missouri is a purely no-fault state. As such, the plaintiff does not have to prove cruelty, adultery, abandonment, or any other spousal misconduct to obtain a dissolution of the marriage.
The only valid ground for divorce in the state of Missouri is that "there remains no reasonable likelihood that the marriage can be preserved and therefore the marriage is irretrievably broken."
