More details to this question:
My husband is prison and has been in and out of there for many years. We haven't been together for a few years now. He was on drugs and extremely abusive physically and mentally! I was told that divorce is cheaper when they're in prison.

The time involved and the price (at least with my office) is the same.

It MIGHT be cheaper in the sense that the person who is in prison will likely not put up much of a fight. There will still be filing fees and you will have to serve him with the divorce papers. But I think it is reasonable to believe that it will be a relatively quick process.

It can be cheaper if you can agree on getting the divorce and other issues. The court cost remains the same. The attorneys fees can be less if it can be an uncontested divorce.
