What are the procedural requirements for spouses during the divorce filing process?
When filing for divorce, there are specific procedural requirements that spouses must follow. These requirements may vary depending on the presence of children and the division of responsibilities for completing documentation. Below is an overview of the key requirements:
Class Attendance Guidelines
Divorce Orientation Class: This class is only required in cases involving children. If there are no children involved in the divorce, neither spouse is required to attend the Divorce Orientation class. We don't support divorces with children, so this is purely for your information.
Documentation and Form Completion Responsibilities
Filling Out Forms: Only one spouse is required to complete the divorce filing forms on the platform. Once the forms are completed, the other spouse is responsible for reviewing and signing them online. This streamlines the process and ensures that both parties are involved in the documentation.
By understanding these requirements, spouses can better navigate the divorce filing process and ensure compliance with procedural guidelines.
