DIVISION OF THE CIRCUIT COURT OF COOK COUNTY A prove-up is when at least the Petitioner, and sometimes the Respondent, appears in front of a judge to finalize their divorce case. A prove-up is the final step in a divorce case and is mandatory in Illinois.
If your spouse has filed an Appearance and you have reached an agreement on all issues, you can request a prove-up hearing date. A prove-up hearing is the court date when you appear before the Judge and request that the Judge grant you a divorce based on the terms of your agreement.
In Illinois, the final step before officially dissolving their marriage is the prove up hearing. The prove-up hearing is meant to be the finalization date of the divorce. Upon prove-up, the divorce judge gavels down the divorce decree, severs the bonds of matrimony, and dissolves the marriage.
At the prove-up hearing, the Petitioner will testify about the settlement agreements. They will also confirm that the marriage is irreparably broken and cannot be repaired, demonstrating to the judge that the divorce is what they want and what is best for the family.
