What is the name of your state? CALIFORNIA
I need some advice My husband moved to San Diego county on May 19, 2006 he went and filed for divorce on May 26, 2006. My children and I reside in Riverside County. We attended mediation and came to an agreement I let the mediator know that he filed under the wrong jurisdiction and he told me to let the judge know well we had court on the 3rd of July and I tried to let the judge know my husband changed the subject and diverted the judge. I already have an open case in Riverside County i opened it on Aug 2, 2005 after talking to the judge for about an hour she asked if there was something else and I tried letting her know that I have an open case in my jurisdiction and of course she was pissed then she said I have sat here for about an hour I will take jurisdiction. I have been told thru the courts in my county that I could fight that being that my case was filed first but I never got to serve him because we were trying to work things out but I checked and the case is still open and will remain open until 2008. Please I need some serious advice on how to proceed with this.Do I need to get a lawyer????Anything would be greatly appreciated...
