Best Answer

The wife cannot refuse to divorce her husband, but she can contest the terms of the dissolution of marriage petition which usually causes the proceedings to be lengthy and expensive for all parties. If there is no disagreement on the terms and the non filing spouse refuses to accept the divorce summons the requesting spouse can file under the state's default laws.
