A West Virginia motion to vacate or nullify a divorce decree obtained by fraud as a result of failing to serve the respondent at a known address is a legal remedy available to individuals who believe their divorce decree was fraudulently obtained due to improper service of process. This type of motion aims to invalidate the divorce decree and potentially reopen the divorce proceedings. When a divorce is initiated, proper service of process is essential to ensure the respondent is aware of the divorce proceedings and has the opportunity to respond. However, if the petitioner intentionally fails to serve the respondent at their known address, it can be deemed as fraudulent conduct. In such cases, the respondent has the right to file a motion to vacate or nullify the divorce decree based on this fraud. Some possible types of West Virginia motions to vacate or nullify a divorce decree obtained by fraud as a result of failing to serve the respondent at a known address may include: 1. Motion to Vacate Divorce Decree: This type of motion seeks to set aside the final divorce decree due to fraudulent actions on the part of the petitioner in failing to serve the respondent properly. 2. Motion to Nullify Divorce Decree: This motion aims to cancel or invalidate the divorce decree based on the ground that the respondent was not served with the necessary legal documents. 3. Motion to Reopen Divorce Proceedings: In some cases, rather than vacating or nullifying the divorce decree entirely, the respondent may request the court to reopen the divorce proceedings to rectify the improper service and ensure a fair resolution. 4. Motion to Dismiss the Fraudulently Obtained Divorce Decree: This type of motion argues that the divorce decree should be dismissed altogether due to fraudulent actions in failing to serve the respondent at their known address. 5. Motion for Relief from Judgment: Typically filed under Rule 60 of the West Virginia Rules of Civil Procedure, this motion seeks relief from a previous judgment, such as a divorce decree, on the basis of fraud or other misconduct by the opposing party. When filing a motion to vacate or nullify a divorce decree obtained by fraud as a result of failing to serve the respondent at a known address in West Virginia, it is crucial to provide substantial evidence proving the fraudulent conduct and the respondent's lack of knowledge about the divorce proceedings.
