How do you serve a spouse divorce papers from California when the spouse is living in mexico?

Answer 1

Divorces obtained in other countries will generally be recognized by the United States as long as no person's rights were violated. You need to attempt to serve them though and satisfy American or Mexican requirements regarding service of process.This means that contested divorces may not be allowed unless the defendant spouse was notified and had a chance to respond. Uncontested divorces are generally recognized, however, and are often very easy to obtain.
