nope not technically. your married until the paper is signed Not strictly true. your ex just needs to be served. Then they can be summoned to appear in a divorce court to contest the divorce and let the judge decide the outcome. If the ex chose not to appear, the judge can decide on an uncontested case.

Can you search divorce records for free?

Yes. You can visit the court and look up names in the index. You should check the index at the court where the action was filed. As you explained your situation on the discussion page, "you have never signed divorce papers". Not signing divorce papers doesn't halt a divorce. Your case may have been dismissed for lack of further action. The divorce may have been granted if you failed to appear or were unable to be notified by mail. A quick check in the court index will reveal the disposition of the case.


How Can you get a divorce in the state of Kentucky if your husband lives out of state and refuses to sign divorce papers and says he will never sign the papers?

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 there a statute of limitation on divorce my husband has remarried and i never rec'd divorce papers or divorce petition?

If you cannot be found or if you refuse to respond to a petition for divorce, that cannot prevent your spouse from obtaining a divorce. The important signature on a divorce decree is that of the judge. You should contact the court where the divorce was obtained and order a copy of the divorce decree. If you go in person, you can request to see the file and review the contents.
