File for a divorce, follow all of the proper procedures, the Judge signs the decree and PRESTO! You are divorced.

Why is she refusing to sign the papers?

She has moved to Mississippi and says it takes to much of her time to come and sign the papers, she want even give me her address so that I can send her a copy of the decree.

Stop talking to her.

File for divorce.

The judge will sign the judgment in your lawsuit.

It sounds like the matter has been heard by the court already. You will need to go back to court to deal with the matter.
