Divorce in California
I have a question I hope you can help me with. In July of last year, I filed as a petitioner and also proof of service. My exhusband has not responded. After six months, does the divorce automatically default to divorce, or do I have to file another form to request the divorce be final?

You need to "request to enter default".
Here you can find the instructions: http://www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp/forms/documents/fl165instructions.pdf
and here the necessary form:

Watch out for other necessary forms which are mentioned in the instructions and can be found on the court self help website, too.

Default question...
I filed and served the divorce papers in early January. My wife did not respond and this past week I filed the papers to enter default. Is the 6 month waiting period from the time the original papers were served or from the date of the request for default ??
Thanks for any assistance.
