Re: Stalling

Defendant can only stall so long as Plaintiff allows him to. Have your attorney file a motion for a hearing and judgment of divorce, if the couple had no children between them and no real property to speak of, it should be a quick hearing. Then, make sure the Order gets filed promptly.
