Ask A Divorce Lawyer: How can she get a judgment against me when I was not notified?

Feb 21, 2010

Question:

My ex wife filed for a divorce in a county neither of us lived in at the time. Without being properly served, I was just notified that her attorney got a judgment for a property settlement of $7,500.

How can they do this without me knowing, and how can they do this when she already got most of our assets? Also, is filing for a divorce in a county that neither of us were residents of considered legal? This is a whirlwind that has left me very confused.

Ask a Lawyer: Change of Jurisdiction

Jun 06, 2007

Question:

My question is how can I have the jurisdiction of my divorce case changed. Neither one of us live in the county where the divorce occured. It is a hardship for me to travel to the county courthouse where the divorce occured. Addtionally the judge who decided our case was completely biased. I have no confidence in this judge making any fair rulings regarding any actions involving my case.

Answer:

Allow me to preface my answer to your question with the disclaimer that I am not licensed to practice law in the state of Georgia. What you need to file is for a change of venue. Generally your case should be heard in the venue that is most convenient for the parties, i.e. where one or more party lives, where the children live and where the information necessary would be contained. Depending on your state law, the judge will most likely have the discretion to decide whether he will give up his venue and allow a transfer to another county.
