There are situations where a Justice may not let you get a divorce, these include: 1. Spouses who intentionally mislead the Court will not be allowed to divorce. An example would be two spouses agreeing to state that they have been separated for one year when in fact they have only been separated for one month. 2. You and your spouse have children that you have not worked out an arrangement for. The Justice must be satisfied that reasonable arrangements have been made to take care of and support the children financially after the divorce. What is reasonable will depend on each couple’s circumstances, but the Justice will decide if the arrangements that have been made are fair. You must ensure that these issues are dealt with before going to Court for a divorce application or else you may have to go back again after having dealt with any issues that were found.
