court would condoned delay and take WS on records . better concentrate fighting your case on merits rather than on technicalities

if wife has not appeared for number of dates draw attention of court to said fact . court may grant you exparte divorce decree .

You or your lawyer may prey the court to proceed ex-party as your wife is not appearing.

If her lawyer is also absent for the last so many dates then suit should have been fixed for ex-parte hearing.
