What can I do if Spouse refuses to sign divorce papers?

Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Answered by attorney Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Divorce lawyer at Donaldson Stewart, P.C.
He does not have to sign paperwork for you to file for divorce. Once you have filed and served him with the paperwork, he has an opportunity to respond if he disagrees with anything you've requested. If he does not respond within the time permitted by law, you can ask the court to proceed by default (e.g. without his participation). If he does respond within the time and challenges anything you've requested, you can try to settle the case and if that does not work, you can ask the court to schedule a trial so the issues can decided and the divorce granted. I recommend you consult with an attorney to discuss this matter in greater detail.

Is it true that in my divorce decree it states I’m entitled to half of my husband’s retirement if I do not remarry?

If the original divorce decree stated that you were entitled to half of the retirement unless you remarried. And you remarried for a period of 2 1/2 years then it would seem under basic contract law that you are no longer entitled to half the retirement.
