PLEASE LET ME KNOW SOMETHING-- THANKS DESPERATE IN DALLAS

how can this affect you? I'm lost! Just so that I understand, you filed for a divorce in Dallas and you were notified that your ex-spouse did not receive his documents? So now, your (ex) has filed for divorce, right? What are you afraid of?
