Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Collusion is an agreement between spouses to fake fault grounds for divorce, which is not a defense. Correspondent refers to a person with whom a spouse has committed adultery, which is not a defense but rather a potential additional ground for divorce. Connivance is when one spouse entices the other to commit adultery, which can be used as a defense to fault grounds. Adultery is not a defense but rather a potential fault ground for divorce. Therefore, the only choices that are defenses to fault grounds of divorce are E, which includes connivance, and A&D, which includes collusion and adultery. Since collusion is not a valid defense, the best choice is E.
