I'm so frustrated. Either my soon to be ex is very lazy, doesn't want to deal with it or confused. He asked for a divorce after 5 years of marriage last November. It's been 1 year, we both have our own places, no kids, our assets have been divided (all of this was done last December). We haven't spoken or seen each other in months and he won't respond to the papers he filed back in February. My atty responded to his and now I have to wait until I can get a court date. I had to plan the wedding now the divorce that I didn't want. It's bad enough he wanted out but now he's making me wait to move on with my life, it's so selfish. It's not like we're in our 20's or 30's, we're both 40.
Also, the last few times I spoke with him (months ago) he was so angry and filled with rage. You would think I was the one who wanted out. Why is HE angry and why won't HE sign the papers???

The man clearly has problems...consider yourself lucky to be done with him and just let your lawyer handle it.
I don't know what state you're in, but in my state the other party doesn't need to sign any papers - the Court will grant the dissolution after the required time has passed. Perhaps it's that way in your state as well? Ask your lawyer.
It's a matter of control, by not signing he is in complete control of the situation, and your life. File the papers with the court and get your life back from the selfish b*****d
Thanks Tanker. But why if he wanted the divorce does he need to feel control over my life? Why wouldn't he want to move on w/his and let me go? It's crazy!

There are ways around you not needing him to actually sign the papers. I would check with the clerk of the court where you are to find out how you can finish this w/o him.
