Dominican divorce

Read a random definition: donation deed

A quick definition of Dominican divorce:

A Dominican divorce is when a married couple gets a legal divorce in the Dominican Republic. It is also sometimes called a Mexican divorce. Divorce is when a court ends a marriage. There are different types of divorce, like fault divorce where one spouse did something wrong, and no-fault divorce where the couple just can't get along anymore. An uncontested divorce is when both spouses agree to the divorce. A Dominican divorce is not recognized in the United States.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A type of divorce obtained in the Dominican Republic or Mexico by mail order or by the appearance of one spouse who does not have a domicile in that country. It is not recognized in the United States.

Example: John and Jane, who are both US citizens, want to get a divorce quickly and cheaply. They decide to get a Dominican divorce by sending their documents to a law firm in the Dominican Republic. However, when they return to the US, they find out that their divorce is not recognized and they are still legally married.

Explanation: The example illustrates how a Dominican divorce is obtained and the consequences of getting one. It shows that even though John and Jane thought they were divorced, their divorce is not recognized in the US because they did not meet the residency requirements of the Dominican Republic. Therefore, they are still legally married and may need to get a valid divorce in the US.
