What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Colorado

I filed a co-petition for divorce in February, husband acted on it in March. We had a status conference in March or April and set a court date of end of August. I want to stop the proceedings but my lawyer told me that my husband has to agree to stop. Truth or fiction? can I file to dismiss?

I'm sick about this- my children need both parents and we *must* work on our differences. thanks.

I would assume your lawyer is correct, we here in the US are not in the habit of forcing people to stay married that wish to be divorced. I do not have experience in your state but in mine requests for dismissal of the case do have to be signed by both parties.
