Legal Question in Family Law in California
Divorce only, laws between states
I am wondering if where I was married is where I have to file for divorce? I was married in Dallas, TX but now I am in Napa Valley Ca, what do I need to do in order to get a divorce in CA? What are the differences in the laws?
Thank You,

Re: Divorce only, laws between states
If you meet the residency requirements for California, 6 months in the state, and 90 days in the county, you can file for divorce here. California law applies to all of the property obtained during the marriage.
