In short, for Mutual Consent Divorce, a joint Divorce Petition is filed before the Family Court. The Divorce proceedings are divided into 2 parts. The 1st Motion and the 2nd Motion. So as soon as your Lawyer files the Divorce Petition, the hearing date for the 1st Motion would be given, wherein pursuant to the recording of the statements of both the parties, the proceedings for 1st motion would come to an end and the hearing date for the 2nd motion would be given, which would be after 6 months. The procedure followed during the 1st motion would be repeated in the 2nd motion as well, and thereafter Divorce Decree would be granted.
