You are either dead, or you are not - being considered clinically "dead" and then revived is strictly a medical concept - not a legal one. If a marriage is to be terminated, the spouse of the "resurrected" party will have to file for divorce.

No they would have to file for divorce, as someone is not legally declared deceased until such time that a county coroner declares the person deceased & a death certificate is issued. Which anytime that is the case no effort is made to revive the person any further which mean the person will not come back to life.

Death is not grounds for divorce. They still have to file for divorce.

Are you saying that the revival would constitute "indignities to the person"?
The divorce action must continue.

NO,BECAUSE THE SPOUSE HAS NOT BEEN DECLARED "CLINICALLY DEAD"
