What are the grounds for divorce in California?
This process to terminate your marriage is called a Dissolution in California.
California is a no-fault state which means that the Court will not examine which party is at fault in deciding issues such as the division of community property and support.
There are residency requirements.
Either you or your spouse must have lived in California for the last 6 months and the county where you plan to file the divorce for the last 3 months.
If you and your spouse have lived in California for at least 6 months but in different counties for at least 3 months, you can file in either county.

Who gets child custody in California?
Like most states, the standard for child custody determinations in California is found in the Family Law Code and is designed to establish the overall best interest of the child with an emphasis on assuring the "health, safety, and welfare" of the child and "frequent and continuing contact" with both parents absent child abuse, domestic violence, or where the contact would not be in the best interest of the child as provided in the California Family Code section 3011 See California Family Code Section 3011, 3020, 3040, 3080.

Spousal support is often awarded at an Order to Show Cause on a temporary basis, where one spouse is unemployed or earning significantly less than the other spouse.
The theory behind these temporary orders is to assist the parties in reallocating the money they used for their living expenses now that they are no longer together.
While there is no formal guideline for spousal support in use in most Northern California counties and courts, these jurisdictions are using the support calculators initially designed for child support in calculating temporary support.
