The Respondent would have to be served personally with a summons or given notice by publication.  If the summons has been served, a respondent would have 30 days to file a response or an appearance or risk having a default judgment entered against them.  I don't believe any judge in the State would enter an order of dissolution without proper notice to the respondent.For more information on Divorce, visit my website at:http://davidleelegal.com/David Lee
