No. Filing proof of service with court does not require money/filing fees.

I have no idea exactly what you are talking about..Generally the person filing a divorce, files the papers in court and pays the fee upon filing, then he/she serves it... the defendant is not required to pay a fee to answer. if it was never filed.. it really does not expire.. except the circumstances/facts may change if nothing has changed.. change the dates and pay the required fees to file it and serve it.

I do not understand your question as they would not be intimidated of service unless somebody is filed a case. If the case has been filed and served, but is not being prosecuted the court will eventually dismissed for lack of progress. If you do not respond and it has been served it is possible you will be, or have been, defaulted. I would suggest that you have an attorney look into this.
