Part 3: Jurisdiction

Topic started by GTD
Hi there,
I am at the beginning of the process and will be submitting a DIY divorce petition - I found this site today and its a wonderful source of advice and information.
Although I''ve searched for info on completing Part 3: Jurisdiction - and kind of get it but don''t - as its very confusing, I thought I''d ask for some help from this forum.
I am a British National (born and bred) and lived here all my life.
My STBX (learnt that today
) was naturalised as a British National but has dual nationality. He has lived here continuously for 4 years.
So...what do I tick on the form? I thought I''d need to tick:
Article 3(1) of the Council Regulation (EC) No 2201/2003 of 27 November 2003
on the following grounds
The Petitioner and Respondent are both habitually resident in England and Wales
and ignore the rest?
And whilst I''m here can I check re Part 4: is this asking if you are dealing with any other courts regarding your marriage? And if not do I just tick:
no other proceedings in any court in England and Wales or elsewhere.
Thank you for reading and look forward to some clarification on this
