MATRIMONIAL CAUSES (NORTHERN IRELAND) ORDER 1978 - SECT 8 



8.(1) If at any stage of proceedings for divorce it appears to the court that
there is a reasonable possibility of a reconciliation between the parties to
the marriage, the court may adjourn the proceedings for such period as it
thinks fit to enable attempts to be made to effect such a reconciliation.

(2) If during any such adjournment the parties resume living with each other
in the same household, no account shall be taken of that fact for the purposes
of the proceedings.

(3) The power conferred by this Article is additional to any other power of
the court to adjourn proceedings.
