    Daughter in law wants to reconcile
    We are going through something similar. My daughter/law moved out of the mairtal residence that is in my son's name only in Indiana. They got temp orders stating each pay their own living expenses and were legally heading for mediation. Right efore mediation, she suddenly wanted to come to an agreement. This transpired Oct. 14th. She sent the agreement to the att. But nothing has been done since. Now this week she is coming back and saying she wants to just drop everything and try again. She suddenly realized she didn't have such a bad situation after all. My son does not want to do this. I was wondering if she signs off on this, can she just up and move her and her two kids back in the house? Any answer would be appreciated.

    I've moved your question to its own thread. It's not a good idea to piggyback your question on another thread. This generally leads to confusion.

    The answer is no. If your son wants to go ahead with the divorce he does not have to agree to a reconciliation.

    The court can not order them to move back together. She can request it.

    With that said, if they have not done marriage counseling perhaps they should consider it.

    If she is the moving party and she withdraws the case. Then the only way to move forward would be for your son to file. He needs to be aware of all the reprocussions involved.
