What is an uncontested divorce in Ohio?
If the spouse does not respond to the divorce filing, it is called uncontested and the divorce is granted to the filing spouse. When a couple agrees on getting divorced and can do the settlement outside of the courts, they can enter a dissolution of marriage.
Can you remarry after dissolution?
You are able to remarry or enter into a civil union as soon as the dissolution order has taken effect.
What if wife doesn’t want divorce?
In a marriage, both people have to agree to participate. But ending the marriage works differently. The court needs to agree to grant the divorce, not the other person in the marriage. You can file your divorce papers with the court, and your wife can argue against as many points in the agreement as she wants to.
Can you get divorced if one party doesn’t want to?
You can still get a divorce even if your spouse does not want one. States do not force a couple to stay together if one person no longer wants to be married. However, it can definitely complicate the process if the other party does not want to go through with it.
