Can a divorce decree be challenged?

Can a divorce decree be challenged?

After a divorce becomes final — whether through settlement agreement or after a court decision — either spouse may still have an opportunity to challenge certain decisions made by the court. One or both spouses can seek to appeal or modify their divorce decree.

What happens if the other person doesn’t want a divorce?

The court needs to agree to grant the divorce, not the other person in the marriage. As long as the necessary financial and legal issues get resolved, the divorce can be completed with one person never agreeing to it. However, the negotiation of these issues does offer a potential block to completing the divorce.

Is wanting a divorce selfish?

A divorce might be considered selfish if: One asks for a divorce because they’re bored with the relationship or with life in general. One seeks a divorce without being willing to work on repairing the relationship or owning any part of the problems in the relationship.
