All is needed is to submit a motion for default against the non-responding spouse in the court where the original divorce petition was filed. Once the motion has been filed the spouse will be served with a summons stating that the divorce has been granted on the grounds of their failure to respond to the original dissolution of marriage summons. When a default order has been issued the spouse loses the right to contest any of the terms contained in the original petition.
