I'd bet he is fine as is, I just know how ugly these things can get in a split second. Not saying this one will.

I will pass on to him what you said here. He is going in to talk to a lawyer early next week so they can file the default paperwork. I just want to make certain he has his ass covered so she can't suddenly change her mind several months down the road and come after him.
I have no idea how long a person can challenge a divorce in our state, but I will tell him to make certain to ask that so he can protect himself accordingly.
Thanks for the input.
