Asked on Aug 23rd, 2017 on Divorce - Connecticut
More details to this question:
Divorce was just filed in CT. However, we have been FL. residents for 20+ years. Property (homes) are owned in both states. We are homesteaded, vote, & have driver's licenses in FL. Spouse owns a business and it's property in CT 30+ years which provides the family income and income taxes are filed in CT. Our time spent in FL and CT varies from year to year. Can CT court be challenged in having jurisdiction for this divorce, which state has the proper authority ? Kindly respond, thank you.

Jurisdiction can be challenged. If both parties do not object, it is possible it will simply continue to conclusion in Connecticut.
