Marital Settlement Agreement
*If you have children, you must fill out the Child Care Verification Form

STEP 6 – The spouse that had originally filed the complaint must completely fill out the Judgment and attach the Separation Agreement and send both the documents to the other spouse. Make 3 copies and keep with you until your court hearing.
STEP 7 – At this time you are ready to make a date with the court. Complete the Notice of Hearing form and send to your spouse a copy and file it with the court as well as the Judgement.

STEP 8 – At this time you will be provided with a court hearing date. Be sure to bring the Record of Divorce or Annulment to the court hearing. At the hearing or shortly after you will receive a Ceritificate of Judgement which will be the official form that solidifies your divorce.
