Re: Divorced filed, Both parties moved before court date

Since neither of you live in Sacramento County, you can file a motion for change of venue. However, whether you want to do that depends upon the circumstanes. If yours was a short marriage with not children then you may wish complete the divorce in Sacramento County. Consult an attorney to determine which option to take.
