In CA there are two "types" of D. Summary dissolution is for couples married less than 4 yrs, with less than $3k of debt. I think we don't qualify because of his car loan and our student loans, he does. If we do the summary dissolution, we both have to sign it and there is no lawyers or court involved and it finalizes in 4 months.
If I refuse to sign it, which I have, he has to file in court, deal with all of that, and then the D will be finalized 6 months and 1 day after the final court date.
He has been pushing me to sign a summary dissolution off and on now for some time because he wants a quick and easy way out. He doesn't believe that I won't sign it because I don't want a D, rather he told me I am only doing it to make him miserable, drag out the pain, and put pressure on him and OW's "relationship".
He has not actually agreed to the refile, although I suspect he will. Hopefully he actually calls me tonight.
