What can be done if your wife will not grant you a divorce in Missouri?
File the divorce papers have them served on the spouse. If there is no response within the required time limit file a request for the divorce to be granted under the state default laws.

Can a person be divorced without receiving divorce papers?
Technically yes. By this I mean that if there is a situation in which one spouse cannot be found (and the other spouse attempted to locate the spouse) then the court will proceed with the divorce without that spouse and enter a default divorce. However, if you were never served the paper work to put you on alert that you were getting a divorce then you do have the option, within a certain amount of time, to contest the entry of the default divorce. Although you cannot necessarily reverse a divorce you are given an opportunity to argue your side.
