Description

This is an example of a default Judgment of Divorce in favor of plaintiff and against defendant, the defendant having failed to appear or answer within the prescribed time frame. The court orders a decree of divorce "a vinculo matrimonii" and recognizes plaintiff as owner of an undivided one-half interest in the community property of the parties, and reserves unto plaintiff the right to seek judicial or extra-judicial partition thereof in the future. Mutual restraining orders are issued to the parties prohibiting them from disposing of community property and/or threatening, harassing or harming each other or their children. Joint custody of the minor children is granted to the parties, with plaintiff designated as the domiciliary parent, subject to defendant's rights of reasonable visitation. Plaintiff is ordered to pay all costs of the proceedings.
