Divorcing in Texas
In the United States, divorce laws generally fall under state jurisdiction. In Texas, you must be a state resident for six months and a resident in the county in which you are filing for at least 90 days. In Texas, a person can file for divorce on the grounds of ‘insupportability’, which simply means that the relationship was no longer working. In other words, you do not have to assign specific responsibility for the divorce to your spouse and your spouse cannot contest insupportability.
