Can my husband file an uncontested divorce if I filed for divorce a few months ago?
Asked on Aug 06th, 2012 on Divorce - New Jersey
More details to this question:
I filed for divorce in June 2012 in New Jersey and now my soon-to-be ex wants to file an uncontested. Can he do that? He didn't give a response in the 35 days that he was given. Am I allowed to do default, even though he wants to do an uncontested?

In NJ if you have filed and he has not answered you can file the default and proceed to finalize the divorce. He cannot file a new, separate Complaint for divorce.
