Processing Times
Siskiyou County handles family law cases at the courthouse in Yreka. Court review times vary; check siskiyou.courts.ca.gov for current estimates.
California has a mandatory 6-month waiting period. In a traditional divorce it runs from the date your spouse is served; in a joint petition (SB 1427) it runs from the date you file, because there is no service step. Either way this is the legal minimum — no divorce can be finalized before this period passes, regardless of how quickly you complete your paperwork.
