A.Hi,
There are 2 mandatory appearances for the couple to be made in the Family Court in a mutual consent divorce proceeding. In a mutual consent divorce, both the spouses act as Petitioners because both the spouses are in agreement to dissolve their marriage. The first step towards initiating the divorce procedure is to draft a joint divorce petition and file it at the relevant Family Court. Subsequently, the spouses would present their separate lawyers to represent them in the court. The mutual consent divorce petition consists of a joint statement by the couple stating their incompatible differences and that they can no longer cohabit together and therefore, should be granted a divorce. The same joint petition further consists of the agreement relating to the custody of children, splitting of assets, alimony, maintenance, etc. In the first motion, statements of both the spouses are recorded and then signed on paper in the Court. After this, a 6 month cooling-off period (not mandatory) is given to the couple towards one final attempt for reconciliation which is solely to provide one last hope for the couple to re-think their divorce and try and make things work out. After the lapse of the said 6 months also known as the reconciliation period, if both parties still don't agree to cohabit together, then the spouses have to appear for the second motion called the final hearing.
Thank you

A.Hi,
The divorce petition is in the form of an affidavit, which is to be submitted to the family court. After the filing of the petition and recording the statement of both the parties, the court generally adjourns the matter for a period of 6 months.
After six months the parties have to present themselves again in court for making a second motion confirming the mutual consent filed earlier. It is only after this second motion that a decree of divorce is granted by the court.
Thank You
