If you want to oppose your spouse’s divorce application, it is very important that you follow the proper procedures. If you simply ignore the Court case, the Court may decide the case without you. You may find that your marriage has been legally ended, and that certain orders have been made on the children, property and maintenance. These orders will still be binding on you even if you were not at the Court hearing.
You must be clear as to whether you want to remain married to your spouse, or if you simply want the Court to hear you on the issues relating to the children, property and maintenance. These are the ancillary matters.
If you wish to remain married to your spouse, you must defend the divorce. You must do this by filing a Memorandum of Appearance and a Defence. A copy of the Memorandum of Appearance will have been served on you together with the divorce papers.
If you just want the Court to hear you on the ancillary matters, file the Memorandum of Appearance indicating which issues you wish to be heard on. After the Interim Judgment hearing is over, the Court will call an Ancillary Matters Pre-Trial Conference, and ask you to file an Affidavit of Assets and Means.
