    Hi, friends and colleagues

    I want to make sure of proper procedure in the following case.  Facts are as follows:

    Parties divorced in NJ.
    Thereafter, parties moved out of NJ: One to NY and the other to CA.

    Now. CA ex-spouse wants to file a motion to enforce NJ PSA. 

    Should CA ex-spouse file a motion in NJ since NJ keeps the original jurisdiction?

    If so, it is ok to serve the NY ex-spouse by mail?

    Is there any other option/method to pursue the CA ex-spouse's interest? 

    Thank you so much for your input in advance.
