Residency Requirement and Reasons for Divorce Divorce in Illinois is referred to as "dissolution of marriage." Like the majority of states, Illinois offers two types of divorce: fault-based and no-fault. Most couples pursue a no-fault case because it allows you to leave out the reasons for the breakup. Rather than placing blame or listing out potentially embarrassing details, many couples prefer to simply state that the marriage is "irretrievably broken." To file a no-fault dissolution of marriage, you or your spouse must have lived in Illinois for at least 90 days and separate from each other for a specific length of time. If you both agree to proceed with a no-fault dissolution of marriage, the period of separation must be at least six months. If only one person wishes to pursue a no-fault complaint, the time period is two years. MLG LAW GROUP 79 W Monroe Suite 925 Chicago, IL. 60603 312-374-4559 www.mlglawgroupillinois.com

The Custody Battle Between Frankel and Hoppy Continues Bethenny Frankel's divorce has dominated Page Six and the tabloids since she first announced her separation from her ex Jason Hoppy in 2012. Though their divorce was finalized two years ago, Frankel and Hoppy continue to fight for custody of their eight-year-old daughter, Bryn.

Hoppy has weaponized these incidents as a bid to have sole legal and physical custody of Bryn. Frankel uses the couple's history of domestic violence to paint Hoppy as an unfit parent.
