| 单词 | desertion |
| 释义 | desertion desertion in both English and Scots family law, the unilateral act (usually but not necessarily by leaving the marital home) of one spouse, without the consent of the other, intended to bring cohabita- tion to an end. Desertion usually involves one spouse physically leaving the matrimonial home, although this is not strictly necessary if all elements of a shared life have ceased. Desertion may be actual or constructive; the latter occurs where one spouse behaves towards the other in such a way that the others is driven to leave. To consti- tute a ground for DIVORCE, in both jurisdictions, desertion must be followed by two years of non-cohabitation. |
