@RNyagss Yes, to file for a legal divorce, a court must first have the authority (jurisdiction) to dissolve a marriage. If a couple lacks a formal marriage certificate, jurisdiction can be blocked or heavily contested.
@RNyagss It applies to both. In Divorce it can be used to establish jurisdiction of the court in divorce proceedings and in succession where a spouse's marriage to a deceased is in dispute.
@Esq_Dalmas_J They want the court to look at the substantive merits and/or trying to smuggle in objections that require proof. ๐๐mahn thats a sharp practitioner
