My question involves divorce in the State of: Oregon
My wife left from Oregon to Washington over 6 months ago. I know that the status quo means that the children are now legal residents of Washington state and that Washington state will have to handle the custody part of the divorce. My wife will not go file so I want to file instead. I need to know how I can file from Oregon when the kids are residents of Washington. Will my filing for divorce here just be null or will it prompt Washington state to start the proceedings for custody. We have both agreed to joint custody and plan to share the kids equally but she just wont file. What do I do?
Thank you in advance for your help.
