Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

If I get divorced in Texas but want to get remarried is there any way to get the 30day wating period waived? If so then what do I need to do? Also if I get divorced in Texas can I go to a different state and get remarried before the 30day waiting period is over? I have been legally seperated for almost a year now and was suposed to get divorced back in April but my ex has pushed the date back 4 times.

At your final hearing (final divorce hearing in Texas), you can ask the Judge to order that the 30-day waiting period be waived. You add an extra sentence in your decree that says so.

As for marriage in another state: It will depend on their laws (every state is different).
