FFS, what does it matter to him? As long as the court is happy that it is correct it should be ok.

It is probably best to put the name you use on the paperwork for the court, but as long as it has your 'married name' on there that is fine. Is that really his only objection, if so, make the change on the paperwork and initial it, DP had to make a minor amendment and the court were fine with it.

anniepan - I also married a loathesome arse, now my ex. I waited 8 yrs to get rid and I didnt need his agreement. Just signed papers and it went through, in about 6 weeks.

if you go onto a gov site, local district court stuff, you should be able to see there. I think he can't contest it or something after a period of time. Anyway I am now rid.

Good luck

Yes Anniepan - The court will just rule it without his consent.... he'll probably just get the decree final (or whatever) through the post. Sweet.
