In California, several family law and civil statutes authorize a party to request a ‘set aside’ of their divorce, legal separation or domestic partnership dissolution. This is not ‘automatic’ and is only granted under limited circumstances. There are also ‘statute of limitations’ that prevent a party from seeking a Judgment ‘set aside’ if too much time has passed. A judgment set aside is essentially when a party seeks an alternative resolution to an order, and does so by petitioning the court and presenting the requisite criteria to show the order should be disregarded.
