You said in your query that both the Husband and wife filed seperate petitions for divirce.

Since your purpose is to get divorce, then it is possible by giving consent to the petition filed by your wife. Thus you can save time and money to be spent for restoration of dismissed petition.

Otherwise, you can file a petition for divorce by mutual consent.
