The Illinois Trial Memorandum for Dissolution is a written document that is used to inform the court of the relevant facts of the case. This memorandum contains a summary of the facts, the issues of law, the positions of the parties, and the requested relief. It is used to give the court a concise overview of the facts and legal issues involved in the case. The memorandum may be used for a variety of dissolution cases, including contested divorce proceedings, legal separations, annulments, and modifications of previous court orders. There are two main types of Illinois Trial Memorandum for Dissolution: the Joint Trial Memorandum and the Individual Trial Memorandum. The Joint Trial Memorandum is used when both parties are represented by legal counsel and agree to the facts and the requested relief. The Individual Trial Memorandum is used when one party is not represented by legal counsel or when the parties disagree on the facts or the requested relief.
