Oregon Co-Petitioners' Order Regarding Request for Waiver of 90 Day Waiting Period
About this form
The Co-Petitioners' Order Regarding Request for Waiver of 90 Day Waiting Period is a legal document used by judges to approve or deny a co-petitioners' request for waiving the mandatory 90-day waiting period in matters of divorce or separation. This form is specifically tailored to address situations where co-petitioners seek to expedite their case by eliminating the waiting period, which is generally required to allow for reflection and potential reconciliation. It distinguishes itself from other divorce-related forms by focusing specifically on the waiver request.
Main sections of this form
- Heading that identifies the court and case number.
- Identification of the co-petitioners involved in the case.
- A section for the judge to specify whether the request for waiver is allowed or denied.
- A signature line for the Circuit Court Judge and the printed name.

When to use this document
This form is used in situations where co-petitioners file for divorce and wish to ask the court to waive the standard 90-day waiting period. This may be necessary in cases where there are significant reasons for expediting the process, such as issues related to child custody, financial stability, or imminent relocation. Use this form to make a formal request to the court after filing for divorce but before the waiting period is set to expire.
