    Default What to Do After Divorce Papers Have Been Served With No Response

    My question involves a marriage in the state of:Virginia. I was married in August of 2012 and separated in December of 2012. Here it is 2014 and I'm still married. I had papers drawn up and served w receipt of signed delivery, yet i have no returned signed papers and no way to get in contact with my ex. It's uncontested. I just want to move on. What are my options?

    Default Re: What to Do After Divorce Papers Have Been Served With No Response

    If your ex- won't waive service, you need to have him properly served consistent with Va. Code Sec. 8.01-293. If he fails to respond to the properly served petition, once the deadline for response has passed you can proceed with the divorce based upon his default.
