Divorce laws vary from state to state. Desertion or abandonment with the intention of not returning is grounds for divorce in states that still have fault divorce as opposed to no-fault divorce. Some states differentiate between the two terms with desertion an intent to end the marriage and abandonment being an absence for a certain length of time. You need to check the laws in your state and consult with an attorney who is familiar with those laws.

In Texas, spousal abandonment is not a formal ground for divorce but can be related to the concept of "constructive abandonment." This occurs when one spouse leaves the marital home without consent and fails to fulfill their marital obligations, such as financial support or emotional connection. A spouse can file for divorce on this basis if they can demonstrate that the abandoning spouse has left the marriage without justification and has not returned. Additionally, Texas courts may consider abandonment when dividing property or determining spousal support.
