FOR WEST VIRGINIA ONLY: If the opposing party to a divorce action is properly served, and does not cooperate in obtaining the divorce on the grounds of irreconcilable differences, you may be able to obtain the divorce on other grounds, such as one-year separation.

Certify to the Court that you presented them to him and that he refuses to sign them.. then request a default divorce.. If you do not know how to do this hire an attorney.

He doesn't have to sign anything. You file, he can respond. If he doesn't you can ultimately get a default order.
