Each state has its own jurisdictional requirements. In New York for example, the residency requirement in order for the state of New York to have jurisdiction is anywhere between one and two years depending on the circumstances. You should check with the courts in California to see what the residency requirement is under California law for California to have jurisdiction over your matrimonial matter.
