Question juridique clé
Whether the spouses had reconciled within the meaning of the Civil Code and what effect that had on the divorce grounds.
Solution extraite
A written reconciliation declaration was treated as voluntary because the spouses later resumed sexual relations; the reconciliation barred reliance on adultery and mistreatment.
Motifs extraits
Voluntary resumption of marital relations, including two subsequent sexual encounters initiated by the wife, supported the inference that the declaration reflected her free will.
