A court can grant a divorce thirty days after the other spouse has been served. Of course, the courts are not always available on day 31 to grant a divorce. Generally, a divorce granted this fast is usually done by an agreement where the spouses have worked out all their issues. Occasionally, a divorce can also be granted where the other spouse simply fails to participate which is fine in cases where there are no assets, debts, and children and people simply need to be divorced.
