More details to this question:
I filed for divorce 18 months ago. First time I file to the courts myself. 6months in I hired an attorney because my husband was blocking every step and avoiding mediation. He is now on his third attorney. He just recently file a counter petition to my petition of divorce file 18 months ago. Can he do that.? I thought the rule was 20 days. Can his counter petition be thrown out?

To give you a direct answer, yes, he can file a counterpetition, but only with leave of court (the court's approval). If he did it without leave of court, you should file a motion to strike the counterpetition. Good luck!
