How can I get legally separated in North Carolina? A separation agreement or other written document is not required to be legally separated in North Carolina. To be considered separated from your spouse, you need to be living in different homes, and at least one of you needs to intend that the separation be permanent.
A petition to partition is considered a special proceeding by our legislature, meaning it follows a different set of procedures. It must be filed with the Clerk of Court in the Superior Court division of the county (or one of the counties) where the real estate is located.
The actual time it takes from when a partition case is filed to when the land is partitioned physically, by sale, or by set-off varies from case to case. In general, partition cases can take several months or even years to resolve.
Any owner of the property may file for partition. This is a court case in which the owner asks a judge to divide up the property. Typically, this results in the judge ordering the property sold at auction. Anyone, including investors from outside the family, may buy the property at a sale.
What is a spouse entitled to in a divorce in NC? A spouse is typically entitled to some amount of alimony or spousal support, depending on the decision of the NC divorce courts. A spouse may also be entitled to a 50/50 split of marital property if so decided by the courts.
Both spouses can only remove the other from the marital home with a court order. So, if there is no court order in place, they both have the equal right to remain in the house throughout the separation period. But remember, living together is not considered a separate residence.
