Court appearance

It is necessary to be patient, because the procedure is not fast, and at the first meeting the decision will not be made. The length of the trial depends on your personal circumstances. The judge, by all rules, will have to appoint a second hearing on your case.

On the first examination, your rights and duties will be read by the judge. Having considered all your arguments and claims to each other, the judge will appoint a time for possible reconciliation, from one to three months. Most likely, this term will be limited to one month, and a second hearing will be scheduled. It should be noted that the appearance of at least one of the parties is mandatory, if there is a failure of both parties to attend the second hearing in a month, your application for divorce through the court will be automatically canceled.

At the end of the allotted time, in the second process, you will be asked if you have changed your decision in a month. If this does not happen, the judge issues a verdict on divorce. Now you need to get an extract with the decision of the court and go to the registry office, where you will receive a certificate of divorce. Only from the day when the registration of acts in the registry office is recorded, your marriage will cease to exist. Your second half can always refute the divorce, for which a petition is submitted for the cancellation of the court's decision. This can be done after receiving a copy of the documents on the conclusion of the court in his hands.

Failure to Appear

You can get a divorce through the court, even if your half does not agree with your decision and rejects the statement of claim.

In the event that the defendant categorically does not agree to divorce, therefore ignores the visit to the court, the hearing will be postponed 3 times, each time for a month. If the defendant does not show up, then they will automatically divorce you, and you will be completely free.

The respondent is not against the divorce, but the circumstances are such that he has no opportunity to be present at the examination? In this case, the court may postpone the date of the hearing. Another defendant can instruct his representative to attend the trial instead of him, having previously issued a power of attorney from a notary.
