Serving divorce papers


I only have a cell phone number and a PO Box for my (hopefully soon to be ex). He will not give me a real address to serve him divorce papers, I have asked. He told me to serve myself and mail them to him at the PO BOX.

Is there some other way I can serve him the papers so I can get out of this marriage? We have been living apart for almost two years now, there are no children, and I want nothing from him but the car I drive, and I can not seem to get a divorce!

I have no idea why he is being so uncooperative. Is there any way I can just go ahead and divorce him?

Please help!!!

Constructive Service
by: Anonymous

If you know his work address, you can serve him at work. If you don't even have a work address for him the only thing that you can do is to search for him. The process is called a ?Diligent Search and Inquiry?, and there is a form, called an Affidavit of Diligent Search and Inquiry. On the form there are approximately 20 places where you should look for him. Places to search include: hospitals, prisons, checking with relatives, utility companies, the military, etc. If you find a current address for him while you are searching, then you simply abandon your search and serve him at that address. If you go through all or most of the list, and you still cannot find him then you go to the clerk of court with documentation in hand, showing that you have been diligently searching for him. You will also need a form called a Notice of Action. At this point, the clerk of court can help you. What happens next is this: After you have searched, unsuccessfully, you can then serve him through constructive service. Constructive service is the publication or advertisement of a legal intent. In your case the legal intent to divorce your husband.
