It sounds like you may have been sent a waiver of citation. However, you should read each documents carefully to determine what it is. Your best choice is to get an attorney to represent you because you could end up signing away your rights to property if you don't know what you're signing. Some important issues an attorney would consider is a list of all property and if there are children involved, where the children will live, child support, insurance for the children and a host of other issues.

Does all paperwork have to be corrected if it shows my maiden middle name instead of middle used when married?

This a good question. It appears as though you are the Respondent in the divorce. You may have filed an Original Answer or simply signed a waiver of service to let the court know you were notified of the divorce proceedings. However, it is important to note that your responsibility doesn't end there. Your divorce decree must specifically state that you are seeking to restore the use of your maiden name. Otherwise, you will have to go through the judicial name change process after the divorce has become final. Your best bet is to schedule a consultation with a local divorce lawyer to review the documents your ex wants you to sign.
