IV. Offenses Against the Dignity of Marriage
2386
It can happen that one of the spouses is the innocent victim of a divorce
decreed by civil law; this spouse therefore has not contravened the moral law.
There is a considerable difference between a spouse who has sincerely tried to
be faithful to the sacrament of marriage and is unjustly abandoned, and one who
through his own grave fault destroys a canonically valid marriage.178
