QUESTION
Is a divorce final as soon as the stay is lifted?
Asked on Jul 25th, 2015 on Divorce - Indiana
More details to this question:
My wife and I entered a stay of proceedings for our divorce to try and reconcile and it is not going to happen. I will be requesting she have the stay lifted and wondered if the time for the divorce to be final would reset and I have to wait another 90 days or is it final as soon as the stay is lifted?

I recently answered a question just like this. Either of you can ask the court to set the case fort a final hearing at any time. A "lifting of a 90 day stay", whatever that means in this context, will NOT automatically get you divorced. Indiana statutes have a 60 day waiting period after filing, but no 90 day period is involved at any stage.
