Since divorce is a civil court procedure, most states have a 30 - day deadline to file a notice of appeal.

Hi, After 30 days exparte divorce are valid? After 30 days cant we appeal ? Please advise.

you can move an application within 30 days to re- open the exparte decree in the same court and if fails to do so then you may go for an appeal within 90 days .

Hi Sir,Thanks for quick advise. You mean to say both (30 & 90 days) are valid? Thanks..

If the exparte decree is to be set aside, it has be done with an application before the same court within 30 days, or if an appeal is decided to be preferred, it would be within 90 days before the higher court.
