You can file for divorce in Maine if: You are married and have lived in Maine for 6 months or longer; or. You are a Maine resident and were married in Maine; or. You are a Maine resident and were living in Maine when the cause of divorce arose; or. Your spouse is a Maine resident.

Under Maine law, a judge can't schedule a final divorce hearing until at least 60 days have passed since the defendant was served with the divorce paperwork. Your divorce may be finalized any time after the 60-day period, but a lot will depend on how quickly you and your spouse can resolve the issues in your case.

If you have been served with court papers in a divorce or parental rights and responsibilities case, you may file a written response (called an "answer") within 21 days of when you received the papers. Your answer or response may include a ?counterclaim? (a claim against the plaintiff).
