Re: how to reverse a fraudulent divorce
First: Get a lawyer and file to nullify the judgment.
Second: Contact law enforcement (police, sheriff) and file a complaint about the forgery.
Third: Contact the officials in your state who regulate notaries public (this changes from state to state) and advise them that this notary participated in a fraudulent affidavit.
Both he and the notary (and the divorce lawyer if he knew about it) can be prosecuted.
