Best Answer

An absolute divorce dissolves a marriage forever. The divorce decree incorporates any separation agreement made by the parties and once the decree is issued the parties have no more claims against each other nor any legal connection forever. They cannot make any claims against the other's estate and have no responsibilities toward each other apart from what is set forth in the decree. Parties can remarry and all claims to property are terminated.
