Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

In Florida a no-fault state is there reason to prove fault? For example, if one party admitted infidelity is there a reason for the other party's legal team to "prove" this by subpoenaing phone records? I understand the need to prove financial matters, but does it matter how many texts/calls were sent?

Getting the divorce itself is no fault you just have to tell the judge you want a divorce. Fault could come into play for a custody case or for alimony. In reality who did what to who is essentially meaningless. Contact my office for free consultation 727-446-7659

You can file an objection to the discovery but then it is your responsibility to prove why it should not be produced.
