Get a lawyer - and you needed him yesterday.
I repeat - you have alegal emergency and cannot afford noto hire a lawyer.
Unless you made the possibly catastrophic mistake of signing her papers, your wife filed a CONTESTED divorce. You must file your defenses, answer and counterclaim within 30 days. Even if you did sign her papers, get a lawyer, now.
It would be very easy for your lawyer to determine if a case that size had settled. Such a settlement would certainly impact your case.
Again, you should already have hired a lawyer. I note from your zip code that you are just a few minutes from our office, so feel free to call me if you wish to discuss your case. Do not delay. Time matters.
