Michigan is a no-fault divorce state, you do not have to prove any
particular reason for your divorce. It is enough to state that you and your
spouse no longer get along and wish to end the marriage. You are eligible to
file for divorce if you or your spouse have lived in Michigan for at least
six months. You should file in the county where you or your spouse has lived
for at least 10 days. There is a 60- day waiting period for a divorce in
case you change your mind.
1
Obtain the proper forms. Go to the family court in the county where you or
your spouse resides. The court clerk will provide you with the correct
divorce packet.
2
Complete the "Complaint for Divorce" and "Summons." The complaint names you
as the plaintiff and your spouse as the respondent. The complaint also
details what you are requesting in the divorce, such as spousal support and
the division of marital property and debts. The court can only give you what
you request in your complaint, so be as detailed as possible. The summons
is a form that notifies your spouse you have filed for divorce. Check with
the court clerk for any additional local forms you may need. Make two copies
of any paperwork you complete.
3
Give the completed forms to the court clerk and pay the filing fee. Check
with the court clerk for the appropriate fee in your county.
4
Have your spouse served with divorce papers. Any adult, certified process
server, or sheriff may serve your spouse. Service means personally
delivering a copy of the complaint and summons to your spouse. Due to the
serious nature of a divorce, you may want to consider having a professional
process server or sheriff serve your spouse. Your spouse has 21 days from
the date of service to file a response with the court.
5
Return proof of service to the court. The court must receive proof that you
served your spouse with divorce papers. Proof is a signed affidavit by the
person who performed the service. A professional process server will give
this document to you. The sheriff may return the proof of service to the
court directly or give it to you to return. If someone you know is serving
your spouse, you will need to get the form from the court and return it with
the person's signature.
6
Attend court. You must appear in court to confirm you want a divorce and
your relationship is beyond repair. The judge will sign a judgment for
divorce and you will be officially divorced. |
