Yes, there are many grounds for divorce. In addition the majority of US states have laws that relate to 'no fault divorce' which means the only grounds needed to obtain a decree would be incompatible differences or something similar in nature.

∙ 13y agoYES, according to The Bible you can get divorced and remarry if your mate has committed adultery.
These scriptures would apply to wives OR husbands.
When asked about divorce by the Pharisees, Jesus said: "Did YOU not read that he who created them from [the] beginning made them male and female and said, 'For this reason a man will leave his father and his mother and will stick to his wife, and the two will be one flesh'? So that they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has yoked together let no man put apart." ..."Moses, out of regard for YOUR hardheartedness, made the concession to YOU of divorcing YOUR wives, but such has not been the case from [the] beginning. I say to YOU that whoever divorces his wife, except on the ground of fornication, and marries another commits adultery."(Matthew 19:3-9 NWT)
"...everyone divorcing his wife, except on account of fornication, makes her a subject for adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery."(Matthew 5:32)
Mark 10:11, 12; Luke 16:18; Romans 7:2, 3.(1Corinthians 6:9, 10; Hebrews 13:4)
Because of this information, many feel that if one's mate has committed adultery (sexual relations outside of the marriage) the innocent mate can obtain a divorce and remarry without breaking God's law. Next to death, adultery is the only action that severs the marriage bond in God's eyes. Marriage is a covenant, a PROMISE of faithfulness, between two people. When one breaks that promise, they've broken that covenant (Romans 7:2&3)

How long must a divorced person wait to remarry in the state of California?
The minimum time required to obtain a divorce in California is 6 months from the date a party is served with divorce papers (Summons and Petition for Dissolution of Marriage.) Divorces can take longer if all of the issues of custody, support and division of assets cannot be resolved prior to the expiration of the 6 month period. You can "bifurcate" your divorce and obtain the "status" of being divorced at the end of the 6 month period, even if you haven't resolved all of the other issues of custody, support and property.

Can a Catholic divorce if he became Anglican?
A Catholic can divorce and remain a Catholic as long as the person does not remarry. The Catholic Church does not recognize divorce so would consider the person as separated from the spouse. To remarry the person would have to obtain a Church annulment or the previous spouse would have to die. If the person remarries without an annulment, that person would be considered as an adulterer and could not receive the sacraments. The Anglican Church, as we have seen with Henry VIII's life, is much more liberal when it comes to divorce.
