A NISI decree means that court order it is attached to is not enforceable until the conditions cited are met. In cases of dissolution of marriage itusuallyindicates the period of timeuntil the final divorce decree would be granted.
During the "waiting period" petitioners' can cancel the proceedings (jointly). Or the dissolution petition can be amended for valid purpose.
Not all states recognize legal separation. In states that do not have specific statutes regarding such, it is assumed the coupleremain jointlyresponsibleregarding some marital matters such as financial obligations, matters concerning minor children, etc.
Another Perspective
No. In states that use Judgment of Divorce NISI the nisi period serves the purpose of allowing the parties to change their mind about the divorce. In that case the parties can file a Motion to Dismiss the Judgment and they will remain married. Otherwise, at the end of the nisi period the divorce decree becomes absolute. Few couples change their mind but the most obvious effect is that you cannot marry until the nisi period has expired and the divorce decree becomes absolute. For example, the nisi period in Massachusetts is 90 days. In West Virginia there is no nisi period. See link for various state laws.
