Article 1081 of the Civil Code stipulates that if the spouse of an active-duty military member requests a divorce, the consent of the military member shall be obtained, unless the military member has major fault. This provision reflects the state's special protection of military marriages, aiming to stabilize military morale and strengthen national defense. "Major fault" mainly includes bigamy, cohabitation with another person, domestic violence, maltreatment or abandonment of family members, etc. If the active-duty military member disagrees with the divorce but has major fault, the court may still grant the divorce.
