Understanding the Possibility of Nullifying a Divorce Decree
Hello, my name is Dillan Savage of Wirth Law Office – Oklahoma City. Today we will be discussing something rather unique: whether or not parties can actually nullify their divorce decree after they have already divorced. So if you and your ex decide that you had made a mistake and that you never should have gotten a divorce, you might have options.
If both parties agree that they were happily married and that the entire divorce was a mistake, it’s possible to have the divorce decree nullified. To initiate this process, you would need to go back to the same court that granted your divorce. As a couple, you would petition the court to nullify the divorce decree.
The Process of Nullifying a Divorce Decree
Both parties must sign the petition for nullification, and it’s crucial that both of you are on board with this decision. Additionally, you will need to demonstrate to the court that, from the time you were awarded the divorce decree until the time you petitioned, neither party has remarried. This is a key requirement for the court to consider your request.
It is worth noting that you both have to submit the petition together and sign it in unison, affirming your desire to nullify your divorce decree. While such cases are not common, it is indeed a possibility under Oklahoma law, as detailed in Title 43, Section 133.
