The divorce can be filed by either person, provided they meet residency rules. In order to file for divorce in Texas or Virginia, either the petitioner or respondent must be domiciled in the state for at least six months, and reside in the county where the divorce is being filed for at least 90 days, before filing the divorce petition. A good example of that are Nevada Divorce Dude Ranches, where women stay long enough to gain residency, than file for divorce in that state. The first to file has jurisdiction over the case.
