FAQ
If there are no problems with your papers and your divorce is granted, the Judge will sign the Judgment and you will be contacted. Depending on the county where you filed your papers, the County Clerk's Office or the Supreme Court Office will contact you when the Judgment is signed and will tell you how to get it.
It is a legal document that certifies that court documents were properly served to an opposing party to a case.
The easiest thing to do is to try and find your husband and ask him. You may be able to find him on social media (facebook, etc.). If that fails, search the internet, as a Decree of divorce or annulment is a public record and may turn up (or a death certificate).
In New York, a divorce is final when the judgment is signed by the judge, and the judgment is entered in the records of the County Clerk. It is the entry in the county clerk's office that completes the divorce process.
The average timeline for a divorce in New York is approximately 9.5 months. As compared to the national average of 11 months, New York generally has a fast process. The reason for the quicker timeline is New York's decision to forego a waiting period prior to a divorce.
You can ask the Central Family Court to search the Central Index of Decrees Absolute for the decree absolute or final order. You must complete form D440.
A summons with notice or summons and complaint must be served within 120 days of filing with the County Clerk.
Some uncontested divorces are resolved as quickly as six weeks, while others can take six months or more. Since New York does not have a waiting period, a divorce that both parties agree on takes roughly 3 months for the papers to be filed with the court.
Importantly, after the papers have been filed with the court, service of process must be carried out correctly to avoid any delays or procedural defects in the case. Under New York law, divorce papers must be personally served on the defendant spouse within 120 days of filing them.
“At the conclusion of other discovery and at least 30 days prior the discovery cut-off date,” parties may serve contention interrogatories (Comm'l Div. Rule 11-ad). Requests for admission are unlimited and can be served up to 20 days before trial; responses are due within 20 days (CPLR Section 3123a).
