News 5 WLWT reported on the divorce papers filed this month by David Tehan in Xenia, Ohio. Tehan is the current husband of Tiffany Tehan. Tiffany Tehan was recently in the news for her disappearance in April of this year. Tiffany Tehan and her boyfriend, Tre Hutcherson, ran away to Florida on April 17, 2010. Hutcherson and Tehan left her vehicle at a parking lot with slashed tires which led to police to assume she had been abducted after her husband reported her missing. Both Hutcherson and Tehan were located five days later in Miami Beach, Florida. David Tehan began the divorce proceedings by filing for legal separation from Tiffany and he is also seeking sole custody of the couple’s 1 year-old daughter.

In the case above, a legal separation was initially filed in preparation for the divorce proceedings. This is sometimes an option in the state of California if for example you are not a resident of the state. In the state of California in order to qualify for a divorce, you must have resided in the state for a total of six months. However, you can qualify to file for a legal separation no matter how long you have lived in the state.
