After the case has been filed, the defendant has been served, the 30-day answer time has run, any custody claim is on file with its AOC-CV-609 affidavits, and the court is ready to enter the Judgment for Absolute Divorce, and both spouses have settled all terms in a signed written agreement. The completed order is presented to the court for the judge to review and sign — you are not divorced until the judge signs it.
