Can you contest a default divorce in California?
You have the ability to contest a default divorce entered against you provided you can show good cause for why it was entered against you in the first place. Generally, the spouse who wants to contest the default divorce has a certain amount of time to do so - in most states it is around one year. The spouse must also show good cause for not appearing at trial in the first place. States vary as to what constitutes "good cause" but generally, being physically unable to appear (for medical or other reasons) would suffice. In some states, fleeing a marriage to escape domestic abuse constitutes good cause to re-open a default divorce, as well. Serving in the military overseas, or in extended training, would also constitute good cause.
Can you get divorce in Texas without signing?
Yes. I am not sure which side of the divorce you are on from your question (the one not signing or the one wishing the other would sign) However, either way if a party to a divorce refuses to sign the divorce papers (or cannot be found or for some other reason) then you can still get a divorce by having a default judgment entered against you or the other party. The way that works is the appropriate papers are filed in court by one party and when the other party does not show the default judgment is entered and the divorce is close to being finalized. It is important to note that most states have a procedure through which a spouse who has been divorced by default can contest the divorce, in certain limited time.

If there is no response at the scheduled hearing, the court can allow the case to proceed. The first order of the case is too see if the proper procedure was followed. If it was then the court can rule that a default exists and the divorce is granted. One of the parties has to be present and a judgment will be entered into the court records.
