They're stupid people who think rules don't apply to them! The Jewish authorities can SEVERELY punish them for this.

I believe that in such cases, the men are angry with their wives, and are simply being vindictive by refusing the divorce (or get). Married couples may have many arguments, and build up great resentment. Resentful people may seek revenge.

If your spouse files for a divorce and you refuse to divorce them will a judge grant the divorce anyway?

Yes - if you live within a jurisdiction with "no-fault" divorce laws. Where "at-fault divorce" laws are in effect, a party requesting a divorce must demonstrate that there are grounds for the divorce. If, for example, someone files for divorce on the grounds of adultery in a jurisdiction where "at-fault divorce" is the law, and the other spouse disputes the grounds - i.e. denies adultery took place and refuses to agree to the divorce, a judge may deny the divorce petition. In some jurisdictions men may divorce their wives at-will, but women may not divorce their husbands without their husband's consent.

There is no prohibition against divorce in the Torah. Although the husband has to initiate divorce according to Jewish law, in cases of abuse, the husband can be forced to do so.
