You didn't indicate whether you already have filed and served the other party. Assuming that you have, the judge has "jurisdiction" to finalize the divorce whether they show up or not. If they HAVE NOT been served, you will have to secure service before the court will have power over the other party. If the party truly cannot be located by any means, the court, upon motion, may authorize service by publication and then adjudicate the divorce; however, joint-creditors may not be affected by this action unless they are brought in. Typically the Court will make the present party responsible for joint debt. You did not indicate whether your finances are debt or assets. Assets the court can split up.
