The documents that would need to be filed, are perhaps numerous. In essence, the divorcing parent would either rescind theirn appliocation to adopt, or their conset to their new spouse adopting. Any person in such apostion, should consult directly with an attorney in their area. Notice should also be given t the Guardian Ad Litem (GAL), or attorney foir the child. One might wait to inform the state agency or perhaps the GAL, because such an off and on approach to adoption, could cause the divorcing parent to lose custody of the child.

Good luck
