Dear Konuk,

If he was not represented by an attorney at the case hearing and your partner's wife did not attend in person, the case would be considered as "not followed" and the procedure would fall apart. (It is important that who is the plaintiff of the case. I assume in your partner's situation, the wife is the plaintiff and her attendance is important to make the procedure carry on)

Family courts especially wants to hear from the parties that they want to divorce willingly and they came to this decision with their freewill.

However as you mentioned that they got married in January , their marriage is not exceeded 1 year period which will make the procedure of divorce longer than a "mutual consent divorce". this will mean that there will be some witness evidence to be heard.

The family judge will need to look at evidence and decide if there are grounds for divorce and will not be bound with parties "divorce agreement".

I would suggest for him to get professional legal help about his divorce procedure.
