Legally what power does your wife have to move on with a separation and divorce if you refuse to sign the papers?

Answer

If most states, you do not need to prove "fault" to get a divorce or legal separation. She can hire an attorney and proceed however she deems fit.

Answer

She has every right to proceed with the divorce. She does not have to have your permission to get a divorce.
