Yes. Typographical errors would not cancel a divorce decree. You should visit the court and discuss the problem with the clerk.

If my husband's name is misspelled on the divorce decree is the divorce final?

If the NISI period has passed for your jurisdiction and the divorce would be considered final, or absolute, under the law then yes, your divorce is final. However, you have not explained the extent of the misspelling. It is assumed that your ex-husband's name was spelled correctly in all the filings leading up to the divorce and the error was made in drafting the decree.You should visit the court and ask a clerk about how to file an amendment that would result in a divorce decree showing the proper names of the parties.


Who is responsible for a joint home loan if the divorce decree designates one party to take ownership and after that person fails to do so the property is foreclosed?

Terms of a divorce decree are not legally binding for any lender. If both names remained on the mortgage at the time of foreclosure then both parties are responsible for any deficit and penalties that might be assessed in relation to the join debt.


My divorce decree states that I am to be paid a certain amount of money within a certain amount of time in exchange for signing over the home. The ex is in financial trouble Can I file a lien on home?

I assume the mortgages are in both of your names. They take priority over your separation agreement because they were granted prior to your divorce. If there is no equity in the property then you can't get paid. You should consult with the attorney who represented you in your divorce.

What if your daughters' husband falsified her signature for a 30000 loan then when bankrupt can he be sent to jail?

I have a friend, which is in the process of getting a divorce. The divorce decree spelled out that she was to get her truck. She has been paying for her truck for the last year, while he is in Afghanistan. She totaled the truck last week. It is in both of their names. The insurance refuse to pay off the truck because she does not have a POA. She is going to be without a car, unless she has a signed POA to get the payoff to pay the loan off. The balance she plans on using as a down payment. She is thinking about forging his name on a POA to take care of this… What are the repercussions should she do this. What should she do???? Help me help my abused friend. Mark

Why is the nickname Philly spelled with two L's?

Names are often spelled this way when a Y is added to the end. This is done to follow the standards of the English language. Many names of your friends are spelled in the same way. Bob = Bobby, Ken = Kenny, Jim = Jimmy. Other words that are not names are spelled in the same way. Examples include real = really, fun = funny to name a few.

I am divorced and have vehicles under both our names, on the decree i have stipulated which car will be his and which will be mine. is it possible for me to be removed from his acct and vice versa I would like to obtain a new car but cant cause of this.?

Yes, you can have names changed on the titles of the vehicles by taking the divorce agreement that was signed off on by the judge to the county tax and title department. If there is still a loan on the vehicles, however it is more difficult.
