Can a collaborative divorce be reversed?
Yes, a collaborative divorce in Mississippi can be reversed. This is because collaborative divorce is a voluntary process that both parties enter into, and if either party wishes to end the process early it can be reversed. At any point during the process, either party can choose to terminate the process and proceed with a traditional divorce. This requires filing a motion with the court and a brief hearing to have the court approve the end of the collaborative process. Once the court is made aware of the termination, the couples are no longer bound by the rules of collaborative practice and can return to the traditional divorce process. It is worth noting, however, that in some cases the collaborative divorce process may lead the parties to a tentative agreement. If either party wishes to reverse the process after that agreement has been reached, they may be required by the court to make their best effort to try to reach an agreement that is similar to the tentative agreement that was achieved in the collaborative process. This may involve both parties re-engaging in the collaborative process or entering into mediation. In short, a collaborative divorce in Mississippi can be reversed, but the specific requirements for doing so will depend upon the stage of the process at which the reversal occurs.
