If since your divorce your ex has refiled it in his city can you refile it again in your city if you plan on taking him to court or do you have to do everything in his city?
Divorce proceedings are governed by the county or state not by any city officials. So if your ex is filing it in his city it shouldn't matter. All that should matter is you have to file for divorce in the county in which you were married. Note: I am assuming this is not an uncontested divorce. If that is the case, seek a lawyer ASAP.

An uncontested divorce in New York State can be done by the parties involved WITHOUT an attorney if they can get all of the correct information.

Why would you file for divorce jointly?
If there is no disagreement between the husband and wife you can file jointly. It would save money and time to do that. Added: Technically, there has to be a plaintiff and a defendant in all law suits. Many divorces are uncontested, however, one party or the other must be the party to actually file the divorce. In uncontested matters, this can be done pretty quickly by one party filing the paperwork, allowing the other party to sign a waiver of service, then agreeing to the terms of divorce, signing it and having one party prove the divorce up in court (I don't think all states require a court appearance for an agreed divorce, however Texas does).
Is it possible to do a divorce on your own with no lawyers?
Technically it's possible. Whether or not it's practical depends on your state's laws and whether the divorce is contested or not. You could try contacting your local legal aid office for advice. IN many locations, lawyers offer a low-cost flat-fee option for those who are filing for an uncontested divorce, since it's basically just boilerplate paperwork.

If applying for US citizenship as the spouse of an American can you file for an uncontested divorce right after filing your citizenship application or must you wait until after your citizenship oath?
It is much better to wait until after you have taken the oath of citizenship and have received your citizenship certificate because even if you pass the test and then file for divorce, they still can not let you become a citizen.
What is the cheapest way to file for an uncontested divorce if all arrangements for property have been made already and no lawyer is needed?
An uncontested divorce is similar to a summary divorce except that the parties can have children and considerable property and assets to be distributed. What makes the divorce "uncontested" is that both parties have already addressed the issues of property division, alimony and custody, visitation and child support. All that is required is for the judge to approve the couples' agreement and the divorce can be granted.Answerto the best of my knowledge most states allow pro se(self-representation) or print the divorce papers that apply to your state&/or county fill them in you both sign submit them to the proper court & your divorced! The judge will most likely be happy not to hear the case, but make sure you have covered everything in the papers once you get a judge to sign NO GOING BACK! AnswerI'm not positive about other states but in Tennesse there is a state filing fee to file a divorce which when I did it it was around $225, that's the cheapest it can be done here. All you have to do is fill out the right papers and submit them to the court. They will assign a court date, it helps if at least one person is there to answer any questions but you don't actually even have to go. Some lawyers will file a divorce for $450 if its uncontested and everything is already settled. Pretty much they charge that for them to fill out papers that you can do if you feel comfortable doing it. In Illinois there is a Waiver form that you can have the judge sign if you can't afford the filing fees. When the judge signs that Waiver your can file all the papers you need to and not have to pay any filing or court fees. you can get all the forms and the will give you examples of how to fill out the papers you have to file for a divorce Pro Se (without a lawyer and the fees they would charge.) Also if can't afford a lawyer can go the the Legal Assistance Offices and get a lawyer for free.
