Dear sherribw:
Greetings. I do not know exactly how long an equitable distribution case will take to settle in Forsyth County, North Carolina. It sounds to me like you still have the initial pretrial, final pretrial, and trial yet to occur. In Wake County, these dates would be set in the Scheduling and Discovery Conference Order and would generally occur in three consecutive months.
You may also want to contact our Charlotte referral, Gilpin, Hatcher & Spransy. Their contact information is found at the following cite:
