What is a Decree Absolute search?

The result of the decree absolute search will either produce confirmation that no decree absolute has been issued or a certified copy of the decree absolute will be returned. If the decree absolute search confirms that there is a decree absolute, a certified copy will be returned to you, which will mean that there is no need for you to file for divorce. On the other hand, if the decree absolute search returns confirmation that no decree absolute has been issued you need to file for divorce.
