Legal Question in Constitutional Law in United States Virgin Islands
Waiver of rights? (doctrine of laches)
If you have retained an atty and
have received the paperwork to file a
motion to 'revoke' your consent to
divorce, but have not signed,
notarized, and returned to atty
(nothing has been submitted to the
court); are you sitting on, delaying in
pursuing, or not exercising your
rights? Could this be a waiver to
cancel or deny your application for
relief (based on atty)?

Sounds like it can be. "Sitting on" isn't meant literally.
