    Default Divorce in REM

    Does anyone know what this means and how it works?

    My husband filed for divorce in May.....I took him to court in KS for jurisdiction on my daughter on 8-28-06 we won because I was not served the papers in time and other complicated issues too.

    The court not only gave jurisdiction to NJ but also dismissed the divorce in KS. Now I have to wait until we are here for 1 year which will be January of 07 to file for divorce in NJ.

    I was told of divorce in REM were the courts handle only the matter and not the people. And that maybe he can file that in the KS court.
    Does anyone know anything about this divorce in REM...

    Thanks
    D

    This would be REM, the state of deep sleep where you dream?

    Ok, that was a good laugh, now look at this aaron.




    he 'Lectric Law Library's Legal Lexicon On
    * IN REM JURISDICTION *







    Rem is Latin for 'thing.' When a court exercises in rem jurisdiction, it exercises authority over a thing, rather than a person. For example, if a divorcing couple asks a court to supervise the sale of their family home, the court exercises in rem jurisdiction over the house. Usually, the property must be located in the same county as the court for it to have in rem jurisdiction.

    E.g. A court which grants a divorce exercises in rem jurisdiction over the marriage. One spouse must live in the same county as the court (therefore the marriage is in the county) for the court to exercise in rem jurisdiction over the marriage.

    Your question is very vague and confusing, that is why you received such responses. Apparently you are also very ignorant of the law so that you have no idea what to ask or what facts to provide. Your other thread remained unanswered for the same reason. http://www.expertlaw.com/forums/showthread.php?p=54948
    Please give us some facts.
    How old are you and your spouse?
    How old is the child?
    Where do each of you live and for how long?
    Where was the child born?
    How long have you been separated?
    Why do you want to interfere with your child and their father having a relationship?

    If you meet the residency requirements of your state and county then, yes, you should be able to get a judgment of divorce which goes no further - not resolving any custody or child support issues, division of property or retirement accounts, or any other issue.

    But your factual and jurisdictional description of your case is confusing, it isn't clear whether any actions are presently pending in any courts, and it isn't clear that you would get any significant benefit (unless you hope to remarry in the near future) from pursuing such a remedy.

    I am not ignorant, I am a mother who wants to make her daughters life as stable as possible.
    I do not want to interfere with my husband having a relationship with his daughter. I want what is in her best interest. You automatically think that is what I want to do, with out all the info..........

    I do not feel that any child 27 months, I said 27 months old should get on a plane and fly 1200 miles away from her home to unfamilar places.
    School age would seem more appropriate.

    All you men on here reply as if some where at some time you were bruised.
    If it was so natural for fathers like yourself to take care of their children, then there would not be laws having to tell you to do.

    If you seem to know so much, my first question was simple and to the point.
    Divorce in REM it totally does exist. A person who actually graduated from law school helped me out on that answer.

    As far as the jurisdictional part of my other questions...all is done.
    My husband lost jurisdiction on myself and my daughter because he lied on his paper work and I proved him to be a dishonest man, he trashed his character all on his own.
    He said that he never left his domicle in KS to move to NJ...proved him a liar...he also never had me served a real brainer..........
    so on so forth doesn't matter anymore.

    Try to keep in mind that the only stupid question is the one not asked!!!

    Have a good day boys.....keep your day jobs!

    The majority of people who responded to you are gals, not guys, FYI.

    I'm not going to argue with you on sending a toddler on an unaccompanied flight - I would fight against that with my own child. But as you were told, a divorce judgment alone, with no custody or parenting time provisions, would have no bearing on whether or not that would occur. I'm sorry if you were offended by being steered toward using a court in a state which could also resolve property and custody issues.

    I never graduated from law school, but yet I pulled the information on REM just by googling it. We tried to help you, but you never did answer rmets questions, and she is full of information that could have helped you out even more, but you have chosen to take offense. I am by the way 100% female. It seems to me that REM that you were referring to, would have only partially helped you with your ex, and rmet was going to do everything she could have to guide you, with the proper answers to her questions. Oh well, we can't make everyone happy I guess. Good luck to you! I would also, by the way, fight hard to keep a baby from a unsupervised flight.
