We live in Virginia. Our one year separation is up on September 1, 05. We have been separated in the same house for the past year. She has not signed the separation agreement yet. Can I just proceed and file for divorce on September 1? Do I need witnesses to attest that we have indeed been separated? How do force to put the house up for sale? Once I file for divorce, how long does it take for the court to hear my case and grant a final decree of divorce?
