What is the maximum time limit before my decree nisi runs out?

There is no time limit for the Petitioner to apply to the Court for Decree Nisi once the Acknowledgement of Service has been received from the Respondent, however if the time lapse is excessive it may be necessary for the Petitioner to explain the reason for the delay. Once the Decree Nisi has been granted the Petitioner can apply for Decree Absolute six weeks later. If the Petitioner does not apply to have the Decree made absolute, once three months have elapsed from the earliest date on which the Petitioner could have applied for Decree Absolute, the Respondent may apply for Decree Absolute. Therefore the earliest that the Respondent can apply is three months and six weeks after the pronouncement of the Decree Nisi. If neither the Petitioner nor Respondent has applied for the Decree Absolute after twelve months then any application for Decree Absolute must be referred to a District Judge who must ensure that various information is provided."


You have applyed for your decree nisi how do you get it?

Explain more of your question. Is this for divorce or what? The present Indian Divorce Amendment Act has removed the requirement for confirmation and therefore the decree nisi that was earlier is now redundant. The order of the District Judge is a final order; confirmation is not required. Only the decree can be appealed against before the next higher court.

Does an NISI degree in a divorce petition mean the person is legally separated?

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 PerspectiveNo. 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.
