Christopher Meloni, the actor who plays Elliot, could not come to an agreement over his contract and had to be written out of the program. According to the script, he quit the force. We don't get to see him, the plot development is handled with conversations between the other characters. However, I note that they didn't 'kill him off', so perhaps when a deal can be made, he may pop up again as a guest.

∙ 12y agoSeason 12 ended with a girl with a gun shooting people in the squad room, so Det. Stabler shot and killed her. But during the hiatus between season 12 and 13, Christopher Meloni, the actor who plays Stabler, could not negotiate a new contract for season 13 of SVU. The script handled the situation by saying that Stabler had quit over the incident. Elliott didn't appear, his resignation was discussed by the other characters so we would know why he wasn't there. That's a good sign because they didn't kill him off. It's possible that, if he can negotiate a contract for guest appearances we may see him on the show again.
