60-1606. Granting of degree mandatory; exceptions; denial of relief; orders authorized
The court shall grant a requested decree of divorce, separate maintenance or annulment unless the granting of the decree is discretionary under this act or unless the court finds that there are no grounds for the requested alteration of marital status. If a decree of divorce, separate maintenance or annulment is denied for lack of grounds, the court shall nevertheless, if application is made by one of the parties, make the orders authorized by subsections (a) and (b) of K.S.A. 60-1610 and amendments thereto.
