Ok - Please help - I filed for divorce from my wife - she got an attorney filed a 30 day motion - The 30 days is up I did not receive any paper work from her so I called family court today to get a date for the divorce. Was told by family court that I MISSED a court date on 5/13/2011 - That I was mailed her reply last month and I signed for the letter! On my daughters life I did not recieve or sign for any paper work! What are my rights now? I think my signature was forged by her attorneys office! Spoke with my soon to be ex- who states there are two more court dates coming up?? What kind of date would I have missed?? Driving now to pick up the paper work from the clerks office - ---

I have no idea what court date you missed, nor can I tell without knowing what she filed in response to your divorce. ---

The court date was for an orientation about seperation? She has filed a court date for August to determine custody and child support - and in July a date for Post Seperation Support?? Can you explain post seperation support? Family court will not give me a date for the divorce? I thought I could go ahead with my divorce before all of this?? ---

Maybe it was custody orientation? There is no such thing as separation orientation. Post-separation support is temporary Alimony. You should be able to set your divorce hearing as divorce can proceed once 30 days have passed since she was served. ---

Ask them why they will not give you a date. ---

They said they will not give me a divorce court date until the other hearings are finished!! IE; spousal support, child custody, etc… ---

I cannot understand why that is. So long as you have been separated for over a year and have properly filed your claim for divorce, the same can be set for hearing and granted.
