What is divorce (dissolution of marriage)?
Divorce is a legal process, through the court, for changing your status from married to single. During the process you must resolve all financial matters between you, and make a parenting plan if you have children. After your 90-day waiting period, and after all your papers have been filed with the court, including your separation agreement, the court must read and approve them. If all is in order, the judge or magistrate will sign a Decree of Dissolution of Marriage (divorce) which dissolves your marriage and makes you single again. At that moment you are free to re-marry.
