Chatting with a friend of mine that is seriously considering divorce. So we got on the subject of Quickie Divorces. In this back woods state there is a year wait
Do you know a person or have you experienced a Guam or Dom. Republic divorce?
And they only make you wait a week to get a handgun in Texas. Heeehaw.
That's very strange. It seems to me in my state you just go down and file the papers. If you don't have any property contested and you already have a settlement statement, then it shouldn't be that complicated. Definitely go to another state like Nevada if that's your state law.
Or you could just declare a citizen's divorce.
"I declare this marriage...nullllll and void!"
Rent "The Man with Two Brains" for more details about that one.
I looked at Nev. for her since she does not have an online connection that she can use. It stated you now have to be a resident or married there. She is not in the best of financial situations, but thank goodness no kids! Their property/home is rented which I guess is good too for this situation.
Yes they make you wait a whole damn year here! You have to be separated for one year........ I am so amazed by that.
I was joking and told her if my H keeps screwing up we will just go party in Guam together and both get a divorce.
In my state there is a waiting period as well. 6 months to a year after legal seperation, don't remember exactly. But my XW claimed that we had been living together but leading seperate lives over that time frame, so the divorce was finalized just a couple of months after we seperated.
Your friend might want to see if that is a possibility.

That's how long mine took (South Carolina). But that was because of the grounds I'd opted for.
Pursuing it on the grounds of adultery would've involved a messier (read: costlier) proceeding, which may have not concluded any faster anyway.
In my case, the time wasn't an issue. It would be several years later before I even considered dating.

Yeah, I knew SC was a long time. I have a friend of a friend going thru that right now.
I do not know anyone who has done it, but to get a DR divorce, you need to establish residency there for a minimum of three days. Hotel is fine and this is what makes it different than any other island. Once you declare residency, you are free to divorce. The fee is nominal (under $100) but you also need to remain a resident for another 3 days. So you are looking at a week long vacation.
But what is the big whoop about getting it done so quickly. Just separate and move out--apparently the paper that was the wedding certificate did not amount to much, why the hang up on another paper that says you are divorced?
I for one would want a quick divorce if cheating was involved or abuse emotional or physical. I would not want to wait around.
This case I posted about involves suspected cheating....... 85% confirmed. Just lacks the signed confession. He has nothing to offer her but his "love".
No way to really prove adultery at this point looks like he cleaned up his act to hold onto possible money coming her way. And he would also stand to get part of it if they remained married.....no reason to share with him

I think I like Steve Martin's divorce advice: "Tell her 'I break with thee, I break with thee, I break with thee,' then spit on her shoes"!
And they only make you wait a week to get a handgun in Texas.
well, come on ... "he needed killin'" is a viable motive over here! BTW, did you know that blind people are allowed to legally hunt in Texas? They just need a guide. Though my boss's daughter tells me that in one of the M-states (Michigan?) no guide is needed

So, quank, are you saying that someone could have said to Cheney, "What! Are ya blind?" and the answer could have been affirmative?
