Filing for a divorce in NJ if the family resides in Europe permanently

Richard Scott Diamond
Answered by attorney Richard Scott Diamond (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Diamond & Diamond, P.A.
The critical issue is residency status. Many people maintain dual citizenship and have homes elsewhere in the world, but those elements alone do not confer jurisdiction on a court system. In New Jersey ( with minor exceptions), to file a complaint for divorce, you must be a resident of the state, physically live in New Jersey, and engage in actions to show that you intend New Jersey to be your primary place of residence. Simply having a home in New Jersey and maintaining US citizenship is insufficient for jurisdiction purposes.

Failure to comply

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
You really need to contact a matrimonial or family lawyer to help you sort out some of these issues by way of enforcement orders to get your ex-wife to comply with the existing orders.  If she "says" a judge told her something - she is wrong.  The Judge would have written an order, and just becuase you did not comply with child support doesn't mean she is absolved of paying the entire $150,000.

Birth Records

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
If you are the father of the child, you can request a copy of the birthcertificate from the other state, you have a legal right to it.  However, just becuase your name is or is not on the birthcertificate doesn't mean you are (or are not) the biological father of the child.
