i have been separated from my ex for about 13 years. he filed for divorce and i did not get a copy of the divorce papers. i know because i spoke to him, and i was receiving benefits as his wife. now i'm not because i'm not married to him anymore. how do i get a copy without contacting him? and i don't know where he is. all i do know is he is not in the same state im in.

Go to the court house where the papers were filed. Ask the court clerk for a copy of the documents. You'll probably have to fill out a form and pay a fee, so bring your checkbook and ID.

Write to the court where the divorce was finalized. Usually you need a certified letter requesting copy of the final divorce decree, you might need the date of the divorce.
Good luck.

You don't know cr*p from talking to him. Maybe he lied! If he got a divorce from you ( I doubt it) the papers would be on file in the Clerk of Courts office in the county in which they were filed. You maybe able to determine the file number by doing an on-line search.

the Clerk of Circuit Court has all public records on file. Whatever county you got divorced in, they will have it. It may cost a couple of bucks, but it's worth having them on hand.

Write or call the county court house where the divorce was granted.

Go to the state where y'all divorced and go to vital records on the Internet. You can order a copy from there...

Just send a request either to the county clerk or the clerk of court depending on what state your in. They usually charge so make sure you put a check with your request.
