A: Started to answer this question without more information, but it may be as simple as just requesting a hearing date from the clerk of the court and presenting testimony to support the basis of the allegations in the complaint that you filed. You should call the clerk of the court and find out the status of the case and ask them what is necessary for you to advance your case to hearing to present testimony for divorce
