What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? Texas


i got a question, as my wife and i are braking up but still living under the same roof, she told me she had filed for a divorce 2 months ago, and says she is now divorced from me, but i never been served papers nor has anyone told me im divorced sept from my wife,

acording to her she had said to her lawyer that i was going to leave to a different country as im not from the US and i will be moving back as she was the only reason i wanted to be in the states in the 1st place, but is there a way to get divorced from someone without even knowing it? or signing anything? or not even get served with papers, specialy as im still living in the same house as her, i wouldent deny signing anything but for gods sake give me the godang papers and a pen heh

Its almost impossible that a divorce could have taken place in just two months....plus if its done without serving you, then it was done fraudulently, and in any case, again, it would definitely take longer than two months.

I realize that there is a 60 day waiting period....however you have to take into consideration court dates etc....it takes longer than 60 days altogether.

There are thousands of places in the United States where you can get a divorce.

I don't know how to check them all.

Fine, but your spouse was notified right?? You didn't just go to court and get divorced all by yourself without your spouse even knowing about it, did you??

 

[lin178]

Yes my X did sign papers but he didn't have to go to court. I would go to the courthouse and check to see if someone signed my name, the information is public and free. If your county has a web site you can look it up for free also.

In Texas you can file a notification by publication. If swore in an affidavit to the district clerk that she couldn't find you, than she can take out an ad in the local paper instead of having you served in person. If she did this, however, it is fraud and perjury if she actually knew where to find you.
