You cannot do anything to set aside an experte decree. Your wife has 90days time to apply for setting  aside the degree. And even if you want to remaarry, you will have to wait till then. It is upto Court to decide whether her application should be allowed or not.

I agree with Suchitra.

the ground work you want to do, that time already over.

exparte divorce decree can be set aside only on the plea that, the notice not served according to law.

before exparte, you have to sent notice, atleast thrice - wcich should come back to court.

address of him/her should be appropriate

after return of three notices try to serve the notice through all other possibilities'

the last option is to serve the notice through news paper advertisement..

if any of the notice he/she received by signature - that means he/she received the notice and ignore the summons of the court..

now you check at court  (by seeing the file ) whether notice properly served or not.

one more, - do not marry, till you confirm the notice served properly.
