Yes, if you stall or do not provide, the courts may eventually rule on the D, without further input from you...
So in a way, no... you actually can not prevent the D if she presses...
The real point is, not matter how much your W might THINK that you are stalling or are working against the D... every time you provide the necessary response... within the constraints of the request... you are SHOWING that you are allowing the D to move forward...
And really... if she wants to think you're working against the D... what would she expect... that you're going to jump up and down for it...? She knows how you feel...
Your only other option, and I DO NOT recommend this NOR encourage it... just putting it out there... just as food for thought...
What if YOU were suddenly in a rush to D? What do you think your W might think or do if suddenly, you not only responded VERY QUICKLY to requests, but went further and asked her to hurry up the process as you want D final as soon as possible... perhaps by a specific date...
That is said strictly for... entertainment purposes... allow yourself to consider her perspective... once she's D... what's her plan? Maybe she THINKS she has a plan, but once she gets her "win"... she might be VERY lost because her purpose in life right now is to D so once she has that in hand... ????
