When a divorce is filed that means one or both of the parties have filed a complaint for divorce and that filing begins the divorce process.
The 'granting' of the divorce takes place when the decree is entered at the end of the divorce process. After the decree has been entered, some jurisdictions have a nisi period of 30-180 days during which the divorce is not yet absolute. After the nisi period the marriage is legally dissolved and the parties are free to marry someone else.
