If you know in which court the divorce was filed or may have been filed, go to the court and look in the court's computer. Look for your name under respondents or your wife's name under petitioners. If the case was filed, it will be there. If the case is there, note the case number. Give the case number to the court clerk and ask the court clerk for the file. You can't remove the file from the court, but can ask the court clerk to photocopy the entire file or those sections of the file you want. If the case is not in the court's computer, it has not been filed.

The attorney providing the answer was not serving as the attorney for the person submitting the question or in any attorney-client relationship with such person. Laws may vary from state to state, and sometimes change. Tiny variations in the facts, or a fact not set forth in a question, often can change a legal outcome or an attorney's conclusion. Although AttorneyPages.com has verified the attorney was admitted to practice law in at least one jurisdiction, he or she may not be authorized to practice law in the jurisdiction referred to in the question, nor is he or she necessarily experienced in the area of the law involved.
