For civilians it is not very difficult if a couple want to do a separation in their marriage. They just have to go to the civil court, fulfilled the papers and in few months they are stated not husband and wife any longer. It is almost the same in the military law for a marital separation. Like any civilians couple, these military couple will first to courts in their authority and then request for the separation, but must fulfilled several rules that appropriate to those military individual that worked in the Army, Air Force, Navy or Marines. This is related in the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil Relief Act (SCRA) in the presence to attend the court. The court will not continue the procedure of separation if one of the couple who is in duty in military service cannot attend the court, unless this military member return from the military service and able to attend the court. In the SCRA stated that the military member is not need to attend the court when he is still on his duty serving the country. In other word since he cannot attend the court and does not fill the necessary papers, the military spouse is defended from being accused with default if the military member does not attend the court. |
