irreconcilable differences

irreconcilable differences. Persistent and unresolvable disagreements between spouses, leading to the breakdown of the marriage. • These differences may be cited — without specifics — as grounds for no-fault divorce. At least 33 states have provided that irreconcilable differences are a basis for divorce. Cf. IRRETRIEVABLE BREAKDOWN OF THE MARRIAGE; INCOMPATIBILITY. [Cases: Divorce 12, 34. C.J.S. Divorce §§ 13–19, 70.]
