Family Lawyers - Can I marry someone else before my divorce hearing?
Date: February 22, 2011
Q. I applied for divorce, the hearing for which is next month. I want to marry my new partner in 3 weeks. Can I do that?
A. No. you can only re-marry after the divorce order is finalised, which in most cases occurs one month and one day after the divorce hearing. However, to be certain that the divorce order has been granted, see your family law solicitor
