Can i get divorce

If you have resided in California for the statutroy period granting jurisdiction, usually 6 months, you may seek a divorce in that state. The problem is if your spouse was never in the state, it may have no personal jurisdiction over your spouse.

You can file for divorce in California, as long as you have been a residence of California for at least the past 6 months. You would file in the county in which you have resided for at least the past 3 months. In my answer, I am assuming that you reside in California and that your spouse never resided in California. For example, if you currently live in California but your spouse never lived here, the California court would be able to grant you a divorce, but could not make orders against the other party regarding financial matters.

The same way anyone else does. The place of the marriage isn't relevant or an issue - only whether you meet the residency requirement in the state in which you now live.
