Do divorce papers expire?

In Sacramento County, the courts file a dismissal of cases after five years if the courts have sufficient staff to handle housekeeping matters. You and your husband have time to think things over. If you decide to go forward check with the court to see if your case number is still active. Good luck to you both.

How do I file a civil union divorce for gay couple who are living in different states?

Answered by attorney Ronald L Bornstein (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Ronald Bornstein, Attorney at Law
Florida does not recognize gay marriage, and therefore will not grant a divorce to a couple lawfully married in a state that does recognize gay marriage. If the state in which you presently does not recognize gay marriage, and therefore offer gay divorce, your options are limited. If the state in which your former partner resides does recognize it, you may be able to work out an agreement and then invoke the jurisdiction of the court in his state based upon their residency there (if they meet the residency requirements). If neither of you reside in a state that recognizes gay marriage and therefore gay divorce, it is more complicated. You should consult with an attorney.

TX - Uncontested Divorce filing w/real property. We are hoping to find a friendly way to use a single attorney to help us divorce

Generally, an attorney will represent one party to the divorce but not both.  That said, some attorneys are willing to draft the decree based on the instructions of the parties.   Based on your inquiry, it appears you will need a divorce decree and documents regarding the real property (i.e., special warranty deed, deed of trust to secure assumption, etc.).   I think you have 2 choices:   1)  One of you hires an attorney who then drafts the final decree of divorce and the real estate related documents.  2)  You both hire an attorney to draft the documents based on your agreement(s).   The down side to option 2 is that the drafting attorney is essentially only a secretary drafting the documents and cannot give either of you legal advice.
