Re: about finalized divorce
If you received a final decree of divorce from your wife she is also divorced from you and just as free to remarry as you are whenever she chooses.
Whether or not your former wife is entitled to receive the proceeds from your life insurance policy or other items in your estate, should you die, would normally be determined by what the
final divorce, including any property settlement agreement(or order of the court affecting
property), if there was one, says----or doesn't say in regard to this matter.
Note: Life insurance monies are customarily paid to whoever is named as beneficiary in the policy.
