Legal Question in Family Law in Indiana
Divorce Filing Date
My wife filed a petition for divorce in 2004. We reconciled and have been live together of the past 3 years. We have decided now to divorce and the orignal petition is still open in the Courts. She wants to use this date. I do not for property valuation purposes. Since we reconciled for three years, can she still use this date?

Re: Divorce Filing Date
If the case is pending, it should still be used. You might try filing a counterpetition and setting forth the dates of reconsiliation and the "final separation" date. Good luck.
