Re: Divorce Degree

The amount of time a court takes to process paperwork generally depends upon two things:

1) the number of cases in the backlog the court has,

2) whether the divorce was contested or not.

Yours seems to have been a contested case...so the question remaining is the county in which it was filed.

Bottom line: eight weeks, particularly over the holidays, is not unexpected in some counties.
