If this is tue, that is a very sad situation, indeed.
Divorce law varies frm state to state in the US so what may be true in one state may not be in another. In Maryland, one of the grounds for divorce ins insanity. The ground requires that one spouse ave been confined n a psychiatric institution for three years. Without confinement you will probably run into the compentancy question. However, if the competent spouse were to make arrangements to leave the other spuse,ie arrange for care privately or through the state (not just abandon them- that nmight be neglect) and have a guardian appointed they may be able to still get the divorce after 2 years. This is just Maryland, and if I had a client in this position, the second piece would require some research.
