Residency requirement
One spouse must have lived in Maine in good faith for at least 6 months before filing, or meet an alternate residency condition tied to where the marriage occurred, where the grounds for divorce arose, or the other spouse's residency.
Court filing fee
$135 typical ($120-$150) — varies by county, passed through at cost
Waiting period
60-day waiting period after the complaint is served (or an acknowledgment of service is signed) before the divorce can be finalized.
