Thanks, ML. The reason I was asking the question was in the case of a husband who refused to sign the divorce papers or agree to a divorce because he refused to let go of her. I know you can't get married unless both of you agree, and I assumed, wrongly perhaps, that you couldn't get divorced unless both of you agreed to it, too. That's why I wondered if the wife could be granted a divorce despite her husband's opposition to it if he had tried to kill her (like, oh, throwing her from the balcony of his penthouse
).
