In spite of the confusing name, a Divorce from Bed and Board (a DBB) is not a divorce. A DBB is a court-ordered separation. DBB orders are available only under limited circumstances where the spouse requesting the order can prove serious fault, such as adultery or drug abuse.
One of the unique aspects of Divorce from Bed and Board is that it requires proving fault. There must be a legal ground for this form of separation with evidence. Acceptable grounds include abandonment, cruel treatment or other forms of misconduct that make living together intolerable.
