Just got an email from the lawyer's office asking what is up with the decree, has he signed?
Per review, my IC has recommended that I stop progress on the divorce (granted she is a pro-marriage counselor) and work on the physical and emotional separation, getting myself away from him personally before doing so legally.
I am doing the no-contact thing, he has not been in the house with the kids since I told him on Saturday that it had to stop.
I need to google it and figure out what happens legally.
Any of you legal people know? If you file a decree, the spouse signs the petition of service receipt, but then nobody signs the decree? Does it linger indefinitely or will the case be dropped and we would have to start all over again? I don't want that.
I could just text Dan, "I need the decree signed and returned", but I have been going no-contact.
