States like to give those individuals that, for whatever reason, were unable to attend the divorce proceeding. That being said, there is typically a certain amount of time after the default judgment has been entered that you will have to contest the divorce by showing good cause why you did not attend the divorce proceeding.
A Request for Entry of Default is filed by the plaintiff when the defendant did not show up for the hearing and the plaintiff wants the court to enter an Entry of Default. The Entry of Default must be filed before a Default Judgment can be issued whereby the plaintiff will prevail in the lawsuit.If your case is not ready for a default hearing, you will receive a red notice with instructions on what to do next in your case to get a default hearing set, or if you cannot go by default. You should contact the court if you have questions.

In Alabama, even if one party does not want the divorce to proceed, the other party can still get the divorce granted by filing for a default judgment. Since children are involved, I would not let the divorce get to this stage. At a default judgment hearing, the party requesting will more than likely be granted most of what they request while you are left out in the cold.
If you serve your spouse and he/she refuses to sign, you may be able to win your divorce by default. Divorce by default happens when the person served fails to respond to the legal documents.
If you serve your spouse and he/she refuses to sign after a certain amount of time (based on state), usually 30 days. You can usually go to your court hearing with proof that you've served your spouse and he/she has not responded within 30 days. They may have defaulted (failed to respond) on the divorce which means you win your divorce by default.
If your spouse has been notified of the pending divorce and fails to respond to the petition within the allotted 20 days, then you can petition the judge for a default judgment of divorce.
The time frames in each state vary in regards to the amount of time that passes before a divorce becomes final. In regards to a default divorce, it depends upon the state you live in and the circumstances surrounding the divorce.
Your legal representative (or yourself if using pro se procedure) can request a dissolution of marriage hearing under the state default laws. An attempt will be made to contact the absentee respondent and after the required waiting period if the named person does not reply, the divorce will be granted. Before a divorce is granted under default laws, the petitioner must prove to the court that a reasonable attempt has been made to serve the respondent.
