Can you reverse divorce proceedings?

[Sun_Kim-Ai]

This is more a rhetorical question than anything else, since in most civilized countries you can stop divorce proceedings before they are decreed final.

My sister and BIL had initiated proceedings, but now they have "froze" them because they want to try to reconcile. I hope they do reconcile in the end, they have a son who's barely older than my daughter.

In my state, a divorce becomes irreversible 30 days after the final judgment has been entered, unless one of the parties has perpetrated a fraud on the other party.

I don't know; I'm not a lawyer. But even if you could reverse the legal part of it, I doubt that you could reverse the mental and emotional damage done.

Thanks for the MHO.

Why would they want to stop if they already made that step they should’ve thought about it beforehand

[KrakenAttackin]

@KittygosMeoWW "They", you mean "her".

[KittygosMeoWW]

@KrakenAttackin her….

if a divorce is granted i think you would just have to get married again

[KrakenAttackin]

I can't imagine any couple coming that close or crossing the brink, will ever be a tight couple again.

[KrakenAttackin]

Who filed for divorce and why?

[Sun_Kim-Ai]

My sister.
We don't exactly what happened, they started sleeping separately and she eventually moved to a guesthouse in the residence.

[KrakenAttackin]

Sounds like she found someone else. This pause is only temporary. She will clean him out and take the kids. Your BIL is fucked.

[KrakenAttackin]

He should also paternity test his kids.

[Sun_Kim-Ai]

Meh, not really.
Prenups are strong here and he's from a much wealthier and powerful family than us.

[KrakenAttackin]

@Sun_Kim-Ai OK, good for him.

[NathanDavis]

I can't... a judge, probably could
