How do you know if you have filed a divorce lawsuit?

The parties can know whether to file a case through court notice, online inquiry and on-site consultation.

First of all, it is necessary to prepare relevant materials to sue for divorce, including a complaint, a marriage certificate, an identity card and relevant evidence that can prove the breakdown of the relationship between husband and wife. After these materials are submitted to the court, the court will conduct a preliminary examination.

Next, the parties can know whether the case is filed in the following ways:

I. Notice of the court

Under normal circumstances, the court will review the prosecution materials after receiving them. If the materials are complete and meet the conditions for filing a case, the court will formally file a case and notify the parties. According to the workflow of the court and the contact information of the parties, the notification method may include telephone, SMS or email.

Second, online inquiry

Many courts provide online inquiry service, and the parties can enter the case number or personal information through the court official website or related judicial service platforms for inquiry. This way is convenient and fast, and it is an effective way to understand the progress of the case.

Third, on-site consultation

If the above two methods can't obtain accurate information, the parties can personally go to the court filing room or the consultation window to make inquiries. When inquiring, it is best to bring relevant certificates and materials so that the court staff can verify their identity and provide accurate information.

To sum up:

After the parties sue for divorce, they can know whether to file a case through court notice, online inquiry and on-site consultation. It is suggested that the parties should keep their contact information open after submitting the prosecution materials, so as to receive the court notice in time. At the same time, you can also regularly pay attention to the online inquiry results or go to the court consultation window to understand the progress of the case.
