The Appearance, Consent and Waiver is a document you can use to eliminate much of the paperwork and often considerable expense from the process of obtaining a divorce. With this document the spouse who is not designated as the petitioner/plaintiff officially makes a legal appearance and consents to the jurisdiction and venue of the court. This spouse (referred to as the respondent/defendant) also waives his or her right to findings of fact, conclusions of law, a record of testimony, motion for a new trial, notice of entry of final judgment or decree and right to appeal.

Once the spouse who will act as respondent/defendant has signed this form, no further action by that spouse should be necessary for the remainder of the divorce process.


In addition to an Appearance, Consent and Waiver form, this kit also includes:

i) instructions explaining the language you will need to include in the Appearance, Consent and Waiver form; and
ii) a completed sample Appearance, Consent and Waiver for your reference.

This kit specifically designed for use in Mississippi.

Frequently Asked Questions

The form is designed to allow one spouse to formally consent to the divorce proceedings and waive certain legal rights, thus simplifying the divorce process.

This form is intended for the spouse who is not the petitioner in a divorce case, allowing them to acknowledge their consent to the proceedings without needing to appear in court.

Once the waiver is signed, it may limit your ability to contest the divorce or appeal the court's decision, so it's important to be certain before signing.

While the form can simplify the process, it's advisable to consult with a legal professional to ensure that you fully understand the implications of waiving your rights.

After submission, the divorce process can continue without the need for further action from the respondent, as long as both parties agree on the terms.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who are seeking a simplified divorce process may find this form essential. By using the Appearance, Consent and Waiver, one spouse can agree to the divorce without the need for extensive legal proceedings, saving both time and money.
  • Situations requiring a mutual agreement between spouses can benefit from this document. When both parties are in agreement about the divorce terms, this form allows the non-petitioning spouse to formally acknowledge their consent and streamline the court process.
  • For those who wish to waive their right to a trial, this form is particularly useful. By signing the Appearance, Consent and Waiver, the respondent relinquishes their rights to findings of fact and the opportunity to appeal, thus expediting the divorce process.
  • Couples who want to avoid unnecessary legal complications often utilize this form. It simplifies the divorce proceedings by allowing one spouse to consent to the jurisdiction of the court without further involvement, which can be beneficial in amicable separations.
  • In cases where one spouse is unable to attend court proceedings, this form serves as a viable alternative. It allows the absent spouse to officially participate in the divorce process without needing to appear in person.

Do Not Use If:

  • – This form is not appropriate for situations where there is a dispute over the terms of the divorce. If one spouse contests the divorce or its conditions, both parties should seek legal representation.
  • – In cases involving domestic violence or coercion, using this form may not be suitable. It is crucial for the respondent to feel safe and fully informed before waiving their rights.
  • – If the respondent wishes to retain the right to appeal or contest the divorce, this form should not be used. Signing the waiver relinquishes those rights, which may not be advisable in contentious situations.
  • – For individuals who have not reached an agreement on custody or property division, this form is not recommended. It is essential to resolve all disputes before proceeding with a waiver.
