About how long are divorce cases being completed R/T covid 19

Answered by attorney Ronda Elizabeth Harris
Divorce lawyer at Harris Law Firm, PLLC
Unfortunately, there is not a simple answer to your question. Each county is under its own set of rules during COVID-19.  Many counties are waiving the requirement for a prove-up appearance for agreed divorces. However, you still cannot get divorced in Texas until after the "cooling off" period. In Texas, this is 60 days from the date of filing for divorce. An attorney can file and draft your agreed paperwork.  Should your county still be under quarantine after the "cooling off" period, then they can also draft the paperwork necessary to meet the prove-up requirement by submission.

What rights do I have after the Divorce Decree has been finalized?

Answered by attorney Renea Overstreet
Divorce lawyer at The Overstreet Law Firm
If you do still have an ownership interest in the home, it cannot be sold without your signatures. You should have an attorney review your decree to confirm that you still have an ownership interest. If your ex-wife is trying to sell the home without you, it sounds like she may have been awarded the home in the decree. Also, whether she can stay in the house or not depends on what the decree says.

Got married in 2 states to the same person.got divorce decree from the 1st state we resided in.will i have to obtain a divorcedecree from 2nd state?

Bradley Roger Gammell
Answered by attorney Bradley Roger Gammell (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Gammell & Associates
As long as the divorce was obtained after the second marriage, you are divorced.  A valid divorce in whatever state you reside disolves a marriage regardless of the state in which you were married.
