Must the father sign the divorce papers knowing he will pay child support and alimony even though he is taking the same responsibility in caring for the kids?

In: Divorce and Marriage Law, Child Support

[Edit]

Answer

IF AT LEAST ONE OF THE PARENT'S HAS LIVED IN CALIFORNIA FOR AT LEAST 6 MONTHS, CALIFORNIA HAS JURISDICTION AND UNDER CALIFORNIA LAW, AS I UNDERSTAND IT, NO SIGNATURE IS REQUIRED BY THE OPPOSING PARTY TO EFFECTUATE A DIVORCE DECREE. MEDIATION WILL LIKELY BE ORDERED TO WORK OUT A PARENTING PLAN AND "DISSOMASTER" WILL BE UTILIZED TO COMPUTE SUPPORT AMOUNTS.
