For those who?ve went through a NON CONTESTED divorce in this state, were you required to provide a pretty extensive list of financial statements, property, personal item size down to tools, furs, jewelry, GUNS, etc?
i just find it hard to believe all this would be needed in a non contested situation.
I think the better question isn't "do you have to" it is "what happens if you don't".
And a lot of that boils down to how amicable this really all is.
TLDR: It's not like the court reporter is going to go through your house with a clipboard. You self report, and there isn't an issue unless your future-ex spouse decides to make an issue.

I went through an uncontested divorce in another state and didn?t have to do anything like that.
It was an amicable thing and she and I actually went together to see a lawyer and had him draw everything up. I can?t remember how everything went but basically it just said that a fair and equitable splitting of the assets had been agreed upon by both parties but details weren?t included about the specifics of the assets.
Anyhow, best of luck and hopefully everything works out for you.
Agreed. I’ve been down this road years ago and that’s all that was done then. I just can’t believe this is SOP and required here.Quote:

The clerk or whoever was filing the paperwork finally said "so you guys aren't fighting over ANYTHING and literally just want a divorce?!" They both responded yes and it was like one form they filled out and filed with no issues and that was the end of it.
If you would like, I can ask her exactly how it happened and what she had to do.
Sorry or congrats on the divorce - which ever is appropriate.
I have been through an "amicable" in CO. It's been a while. We split everything up and there were no lawyers involved. We went to the county building (Larimer) and told one of the clerks what we wanted to do. She gave us the appropriate paperwork and we were on our way. I think it took 6 months before we got the confirmation paperwork back.
Good luck.

Just went thru it here (I know it's not CO). I used an online service that guaranteed the paperwork would be accepted by the court. The paperwork asked for all that stuff...we just put down big stuff like cars and what would happen to the house. Gave it to the clerk and she notarized it. Judge signed it 21 days later. After it was done we even did a few things differently than what was in the agreement. Nobody cared. As far as a process goes, it was pretty simple. Hell...we're still living together until I close on my house the end of the month.
Isn?t that awkward when she brings her dates home?Quote:

If your marriage was for less than three years and/or there are no children involved, I don't believe so. I went through this fairly recently in Colorado. The final decree isn't a year old yet. My take is that it depends on how "amicable" the situation is. I listed my guns, tools, and some higher end camping gear. She listed jewelry, antiques, and photographic equipment. The judge asked us a few questions and if we were satisfied with each others responses. We had pretty much gone through our financial statements together and knew what each other had listed.Quote:

Thanks for all the replies. I’m hoping this comes down to the receptionist who forwarded me the “forms.” Sent the wrong one. I asked to for a call back from the attorney and not “her.” We will see how it goes.
For those inquiring, yes, I’d rather be back with her, but doesn’t seem to be a possibility, and yes, we get along great with no fighting issues at all. So over all, the best of a shit situation.
when i got divorced her attorney wanted to see a list of assets. I sent them a milk carton with her picture on it. ;)

Financially it was the sound option for both of us.
I was told I was prettier than her new dates by the neighbor lady.
After Jeff BOZO divorce, we were thinking about agreement whereas if someone do stupid shit that leads to a divorce only gets 5% of the total asset.
Whatever happens, I wish you luck. Can't really say it's a good thing, but sometimes it's the better option. Hard to say.
I don't like these threads.

I'm guessing there was not a prenuptial agreement.
Why? Outside of knowing some forum member you may know, is having a tough time .Quote:

Best of luck to you.
Thats why I joined Space Force. So I can leave this shithole planet.
I didn't send them a milk carton but I did tell them to go pound sand if they wanted that information! First marriage was only 6 months long..not much to split up.Quote:

Both the husband and the wife must complete this detailed, six-page form, which must be notarized and each must exchange his or her Sworn Financial Statement with the other. The purpose of this statement is "to determine whether the Separation Agreement is fair to each party." This statement must be filed with 40 days of service to the Respondent or 40 days after filing jointly.
Thanks. I’ll check into it.Quote:

THAT!
:-)
I would love to find a woman that wanted a prenup. That likely means she has quite a bit to lose and wants to make sure I don?t clean her out when I leave. In the meantime she can buy me nice things and pamper me.
Nope - she's a selfish bitch who expects YOU to pamper HER, with no reciprocity.Quote:

Just say no.
We tend to lose (or become not as active) many members after divorce.
This week should be allocated to email or call those members to see how they are doing.
I can name 4 at least.
