What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? TX
My husband filed for an uncontested divorce about 2 months back. I did not sign the "Waiver of service" because I was unsure about some of the lines in the document. I haven't been officially served yet. I plan to move out of state because of job requirements in the next couple weeks. I was wondering if I need to inform the court or anybody at all about my new address. More fundamentally, would the case still hold? (I ask because TX divorce has some residency requirements. Do those have to be satisfied at the time of filing or at the time of serving?)
If the case was still valid and my husband eventually decided to serve me officially at my new address, would I have to make court appearances back in TX? What circumstances might require me to appear at court in TX?
Finally, I wanted to know whether the case would become a contested divorce just because I did not sign the waiver?
Edit:Another question..
Would any of the answers be different if I were moving out of the US?
