Paper divorce

A paper divorce is a case in which a couple obtains a legal divorce but continues to live together as before. It may be done for financial reasons, such as to isolate medical debts to only fall on the ill partner.^[1]^[2] If the divorce is fraudulent, it is called a sham divorce.^[3]^[4]
