I got married in South Africa to a South African. How do I get a divorce?

   As long as you have lived in Florida for more than 6 months you can file for divorce.  There is a method to publish in a local paper to "serve" your spouse, after you have filed an affidavit that you do not know his whereabouts.     The court can grant you a divorce, but cannot make any determinations regarding any  property you own, any alimony or child issues (though I do not think you have a child with him).     Hope this helps!   Good luck, Cindy S.
