However at the end of the process, the parties’ marital status is not terminated, meaning they remain legally married. Some people choose to be legally separated for tax, health care and religious reasons. In addition, persons may request a legal separation if they do not meet the residency requirements for the State of California and County of San Diego. www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp/family/divorce/intro.htm Custody and Visitation When children are involved, the parties may ask the Court to make orders regarding how the parents will share time with their children.
