Q: Divorcing without an attorney. In the state of california, you can pick up a divorce packet and fill out the paperwork.
The judge says you're divorced. The clerk finds mistakes in your papers. The errors must be fixed. Are you still legally married until all mistakes had been corrected?
The divorce was 30 years ago. The mistakes were never corrected and sent back to the courthouse. Are they divorced or still married? If married, do they need to refile?
