so the way no fault divorce Works in
Oregon is the only grounds for divorce
are irreconcilable differences have led
to the IR remediable breakdown of the
marriage one does not need to specify
what those differences are and the other
party cannot contest that they can’t say
for instance no I don’t agree there
aren’t irreconcilable differences so
basically if a party wants to get
divorced in Oregon there will be a
divorce and the conduct of the parties
or of a party for the most part is
irrelevant you know infidelity uh abuse
uh and all the other things that can
lead to the breakdown of a marriage we
don’t talk about some of those things
can be uh relevant for child custody for
instance if there’s been domestic
violence that can affect the custody
decision but generally we don’t get into conduct
