divorce jurisdictionQuestion:

Our divorce has not been finalized but we have had child support orders entered in the state my wife and children live (California).

Now that I live in another state (Washington), can I file for divorce in this state as long as I've met the residency requirements or does California have jurisdiction because it issued the child support order?

mens divorce lawyer William BackerQuestion:

My wife and I live in separate states. She filed for divorce in the state she now lives in.

However, that state has no personal jurisdiction over me so it cannot rule on alimony, child support, property division, etc.

How do I notify the court that I am contesting personal jurisdiction?

Jurisdiction issues are frequently discussed on DadsDivorce.com, but one area that needs clarifying is the difference between subject matter jurisdiction and personal jurisdiction.
