Desertion

Desertion
The willful and continuous desertion by one party for a period of twelve or more months, and satisfactory proof that the parties have ceased to cohabit as man and wife constitutes desertion under N.J.S.A. 2A:34-2(b).

What would constitute proof? If for example one spouse moved out and got a new address, changed their driver's license, and did not contact the other spouse, these would be great proofs usable in proving desertion.
