Re: Divorce trial
If you and your spouse disagree to material
facts -- facts that would allow the judge
to make a decision for one and not the other
-- then there is a basis for a divorce trial.
If there are other witnesses, you or your
spouse would need to call them to the stand
to testify and to be cross-examined.
