More details to this question:
I checked my divorce status online and it says Divorce-joint petition, dismissed. Does that mean that I am not divorced yet? I lived in a different state now. Can I refile where I currently live?

If your prior petition was dismissed, then you are not divorced. If you meet residency requirements in the State that you currently reside, then it may be possible for you to file there. You should consult with an attorney in order to determine what State has jurisdiction over your divorce matter, as well as any issues pertaining to minor children, if you have them.

It sounds like somebody failed to do something necessary. Yes, you can file where you live, but your spouse will have to be served where he or she lives. If this will be basically uncontested, I suggest you hire an attorney to make sure it is done right this time.

Would appear that you are not the worst, and if you currently have met the jurisdictional requirements of your current residence state you should be able to refile a case there.
