    Default Divorce by Publication

    My question involves a marriage in the state of: Georgia
    I am a resident of Atlanta, Dekalb County. I have filed for divorce by publication through an attorney. Can anyone help me regarding the time taken by the judge to grant "order of publication". It has been a month since I filed my "affidavit of deligent search" but haven't heard anything from the court. I talked with the clerk but she says that i need to talk to the attorney. however, my attorney says that we need to wait. how long does it take normally....Please help......Sometimes I feel my attorney is not guiding me properly. How long does the whole process take........I would appreciate if anyone would suggest me in this matter.....very very helpless

    Your attorney knows the judge's practices and court practices, and thus should be in the best position to advise you as to when the judge may rule. If the motion was properly filed, it's pending before the court. You can discuss with your lawyer whether it is necessary to notice the motion for hearing and, if so, whether that was done.
