Now that you've decided to proceed, let's go through how service of the divorce application works under Australian family law rules.

یعنی باید خودم اسناد رو دستش بدم؟ چون دیگه اصلاً با هم صحبت نمی‌کنیم و نمی‌خوام باهاش رو در رو بشم.

SEGMENT 3 · ENGLISH · 24 WORDS

You can't serve him yourself since you're a party to the case; someone over eighteen, like a friend or process server, must do it.

SEGMENT 4 · PERSIAN · 16 WORDS

باشه، فهمیدم. ولی اگه اون از گرفتن اسناد امتناع کنه یا اصلاً بی‌توجهی کنه چی می‌شه؟

If he doesn't respond within 28 days of being served, we can ask the court to finalise your divorce without waiting for his reply.

SEGMENT 6 · PERSIAN · 14 WORDS
Client

برای اینکه ثابت کنیم اسناد واقعاً بهش رسیده، باید چه مدرکی به دادگاه بدیم؟

SEGMENT 7 · ENGLISH · 24 WORDS
Lawyer

The person who serves him must sign an affidavit of service, confirming the exact date, time, and manner the documents were delivered to him.

SEGMENT 8 · PERSIAN · 20 WORDS
Client

اگه آدرس دقیقش رو نداشته باشیم چی؟ چون چند ماهه جابجا شده و ما خبر نداریم الان کجا زندگی می‌کنه.

SEGMENT 9 · ENGLISH · 24 WORDS
Lawyer

If you genuinely can't locate him, we can apply to the court for substituted service, such as delivering documents through email or social media.

SEGMENT 10 · PERSIAN · 14 WORDS
Client

باشه، پس وقتی همه این مراحل انجام شد، جلسه دادگاه رو کی برگزار می‌کنن؟

SEGMENT 11 · ENGLISH · 25 WORDS
Lawyer

Once the court confirms service, a hearing date is usually listed about one month later, though you generally won't need to attend in person yourself.

SEGMENT 12 · PERSIAN · 15 WORDS
Client

خیلی ممنونم، حالا خیالم راحت‌تر شد که لازم نیست خودم مستقیم باهاش تماس بگیرم.
