I do not understand exactly what you mean when you say the divorce was “granted” but then dismissed because of failure to receive “an extension of time” . In any case, since you did not enter into a legal separation, you are still considered married and technically all of the assets you acquired during the period in which you were married are marital property and are to be divided under the equitable distribution rules. This will include both your 401(k), IRA, but will also include any asset your wife acquired, including her home which she purchased.
If you’re located in the New York City metropolitan area, please call me at 212-370-1660 to make an appointment to discuss the matter and see if we can mediate this divorce.
