    Depends on what is holding your case from moving on. Is there any allegations you have made to the courts that the courts need clarity on ?

    From the link Cdad provided, it seems clear that the court probably wants you to testify under oath, to the allegations you made in your uncontested divorce application (complaint, petition, or whatever they call it there). Pretty standard (except that "Prove-up Hearing" is a term not used everywhere-or anywhere else that I know):

    • yes, we were married on such-and-such a date;
    • we have (specified) children,
    • wife is/ is not pregnant;
    • we own the property described,
    • we have these debts,
    • we agree to these terms of divorce,
    • etc.

    Do you have a lawyer or are you pro se ? If you have a lawyer , they shoukd take care or it. If you are pro se , go to the clerks office and ask what your county and judge require.

    I am only familiar with other stares where typically by prove up, all issues have either already been heard and answered by the judge or agreed to by the parties, so there is no " hearing". In my jurisdiction, for example, we bring a judges infirmation sheet, a court reporter infirmation sheet, a court reporter if not provided by the court, and the marital settlement and parenting agreements to be entered by the judge. This varies by county even within one state so you need to find out locally. You need several copies of most documents.
