Divorce Papers

Unless the marriage was performed in Oregon, one of the spouses must have been a resident of Oregon for six months immediately prior to filing. If the marriage was performed in Oregon and either spouse is a resident at the time of filing, there is no residency requirement. The dissolution of marriage may be filed in a county where either spouse resides. There is a 90-day waiting period before a hearing will be scheduled which begins after the respondent has been served with papers or has filed an Appearance. [Oregon Revised Statutes; Volume 2, Sections 14.070, 107.065, 107.075].

The only ground for no-fault divorce in Oregon is: Irreconcilable differences between the spouses which have caused the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage, Misconduct of the spouses will only be considered when child custody is an issue or if necessary to prove irreconcilable differences. [Oregon Revised Statutes; Volume 2, Section 107.025].
