Re: state residency for divorce
Where does the other party live? As a plaintiff the court has personal jurisdiction over you by consent. That consent is implied as you filed suit in that court. The court has personal jurisdiction over the defendant if the defendant lives with in the court's jurisdiction. In Pennsylvania that's by county.
If you have any questions feel free to contact me. The initial consultation is free.
