Pamela Anderson Files for Divorce, Then Changes Her Mind
December 27, 2007 
Author On December 14, 2007 actress/model Pamela Anderson filed for divorce from Rick Salomon in Los Angeles Superior Court after only two months of marriage.
Anderson and Salomon married on October 6, 2007, in Las Vegas. But because Anderson and Salomon are residents of Los Angeles, Anderson was required to file for divorce in Los Angeles. Many people assume that a person must file for divorce in the state they were married, however, the law requires that a petition for dissolution (the form filed for divorce) be filed in the state and county in which one or both parties have resided for at least six months.
Shortly after Anderson filed for divorce she withdrew her petition which stopped the divorce process from continuing. A party who files a petition for dissolution may withdraw the petition, or “stop” the divorce, at any time before the final judgment has been entered. The final judgment is entered when the final agreement between the parties (regarding the division of property) has been filed and processed with the court. Then once a judgment is submitted to the court it generally takes the court about 6 months to enter it.
So, because Anderson decided to reconcile with Salomon (she says “We are working things out…”), it was necessary for her to withdraw, or cancel, the petition for dissolution she filed in order to prevent the divorce process from continuing. In the case that Anderson and Salomon are unable to “work things out,” Anderson will have to re-file a petition for dissolution.

I wouldn’t dismiss the possibility that Rick and Pamela could reconcile and rehabilitate their marriage. Look at the case of Cordozar Calvin Broadus, a.k.a. “Snoop Dogg,” a profane rapper who’s a regular on the pornographic Girls Gone Wild video series and the Howard Stern Show.
He filed for divorce in 2004 against Shante, his wife of seven years and mother of their three children. But in 2007 he reconciled with his wife, called off the divorce, and resumed his role as head of the family.
“I was caught up with Hollywood, and the girls and the night life,” he told the World Entertainment News Network. “I thought I was ‘the man’ and I was willing to give up what I had at home for that, until I realized that what I had at home was irreplaceable, so I gave that up to go back home.
“I just don’t want another man raising my kids. That was the main goal. I had kids with my wife because I wanted to be with my wife. And those three babies [Corde, Cordell and Coril] are all wanted, and I wanted to be with them.”
Mr. Broadus embodies many of the pathologies of the urban contemporary ghetto, but - bless his heart - he “gets” marriage and fatherhood.
