In every state both parties have to sign for a divorce. Sometimes a judge will decide in favor of a divorce for one party without the other parties signature.

Answer What I know about divorce papers is that they require two signatures, one from you the other from your husband, and if he doesn't sign the divorce papers, it doesn't matter he is no longer in the State where you live, if he doesn't sign the papers you can't get your divorce. There is also common law marriages where two people can live together for as long as they want and divorced or not, you can still live with another man. There's no law against it.


Is a marriage legal if the husband was not divorced from his first wife when the license was obtained but the divorce papers came in the mail 2 days before the actual ceremony of the second marriage?

Depends upon what the divorce papers were. If it was the final decree and the state in which the divorce was granted does not have a waiting period for the involved parties to remarry, then the second marriage is legal. However if the above does not apply then the involved parties should consult with an attorney as to the proper procedures to clear up the matter.
