CAN WE OPEN A DIVORCE CASE AGAIN IF JUDGMENT HAS PASSED like this without receiving any notice to us it was passed by honorable court on dated 04 April 2022 Contested--DECREED EX-PARTE what can we do


A. Dear Client
A divorce case which was decreed ex parte can be reopened by the missing party as long as the case is reopened within one year of the original decision but many judges show allowances for longer delays as long as 3 years sometimes.
Yes, you can give reopening a try as it was decided ex-parte.
Hope it helps
