What happens if the final divorce papers are not signed by the Petitioner but are signed by Respondent after 30 days of the Judge finalizing the divorce?
Chellez
If the judge has signed them, the parties' signatures are not required. If one party has prepared the decree following the judge's oral pronouncement, and if the other party fails to sign the proposed draft of the decree of divorce so that it can be submitted to the court, then the drafting party should file a "Motion to Enter" with a copy of the proposed decree attached to the motion and seek a hearing on the motion, and at such hearing the Court will enter a decree with or without signatures.

What are divorce laws in Florida?
Divorce laws in Florida vary according to numerous details, such as the grounds for divorce, whether it is an uncontested divorce, how property is divided, the allocation of child custody, and so on. For a divorce to be completed, the Petitioner and Respondent must reach a fair agreement, and it is highly advised that a divorce lawyer or mediator is hired to ensure this happens.

What happens when a bankruptcy trustee uses an unexpected inheritance the petitioner receives to pay off debts a judge had ordered the ex-husband pay off at prior divorce proceedings?
The debts are paid off and the bankruptcy is closed or any remaining debts are discharged. Assuming the petitioner was the ex-wife who received the inheritance, the divorce court order still stands, and the ex-wife may file a contempt action in divorce court to have the ex-husband pay the ex-wife the amount used to pay the debts. He may even be liable for some or all the costs of the bankruptcy if his failure to pay the debts led to the bankruptcy.
What can happen for a failure to appear in a remote state hearing related to a requirement that you not have contact with the plaintiff?
Whenever you are summoned to appear before a court, regardless of its location, you are advised to appear in person or to at least have an attorney appear on your behalf. Depending on the nature of the case, a warrant for your arrest (called a "bench warrant") can be issued by the judge. If that happens, you will be arrested if a police officer has reason to run your ID through his computer system, such as in the case of a traffic stop. From the wording of your question, it SOUNDS like someone requested a Restraining Order (also known as a Protective Order) against you. That person is known as the "petitioner". When a petitioner asks the court for protection, a hearing date is automatically scheduled to determine whether the person has a good enough reason for the court to grant an order of protection. When the respondent (the person who is allegedly frightening or harming the petitioner) fails to appear in court at the time of the hearing, the court will assume that the petitioner has cause for an order of protection, and s/he will be granted an order by default. In other words, the petitioner "wins", and the respondent "loses". This over-simplifies the process, but I think it answers your question. The bottom line is: ALWAYS GO TO COURT OR HAVE A LAWYER GO FOR YOU WHEN YOU ARE SUMMONED TO APPEAR.
