How do you get legally separated in Oregon?
In order to have a legally-enforceable separation in Oregon, a petition must be filed with the local county court. A judgment must then be entered. The judgment of separation leaves an otherwise valid marriage in-tact, but allows the parties to live apart.
How do you change a legal separation to a divorce?
Write a motion requesting that the court convert your case from legal separation into a divorce. File the motion with the clerk of the court. The clerk will provide you with the date and time for a hearing on the motion. Send or deliver a copy of the motion, along with notice of the hearing, to your spouse.
Should you talk to your spouse during separation?
If you are separated, it is very important to keep open communication with your spouse. But because you are apart, it is easy to let the poor communication that contributed to the decision to separate evolve into no communication at all. And without good, open communication, most separations culminate in divorce.
