Legal Question in Family Law in New York

''Single Line'' separation?

I know there is such a thing as a single line divorce where if one person does not want it, the other can file.

Is there such a thing for a legal separation to protect the leaving party?

There is no such thing as a "single line" divorce. If there is a dispute as to the grounds for a divorce (or separation) there can be a trial on that issue.
