Step One: Filing the Complaint
A divorce process begins with submitting a “Complaint”, accompanied by two essential forms:
- Notice to Defend and Claim Rights: This must be attached to the top of the Complaint.
- Verification: This is attached at the bottom of the Complaint.
Filing Procedure:
- Submit the Complaint at the office responsible for legal pleadings in your county.
- Pay the required filing fee unless you are filing In Forma Pauperis (a request to waive fees for those unable to afford them), which must be included with your Complaint.
- The caption on all documents should include:
- The name of the county.
- Your name and your spouse’s name.
- The docket number assigned by the filing office.
This caption must be consistent on all documents throughout the case, regardless of who submits them.
