What Is a Divorce Decree? A divorce decree is the courtâs final ruling and judgment order that makes the termination of a marriage official. Each divorce decree will be different, but in general the purpose of the decree is to summarize the rights and duties of each party in connection with the divorce. Divorce decrees are important, because the divorce process is not complete until one is issued. Thus, the partyâs status as married or divorce will not be finalized until the divorce decree is completed.
