What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I received a copy of my divorce decree and in the field where it says, "Date marital or domestic partnership status ends: 'UPON ENTRY OF JUDGEMENT'"-what does "ENTRY OF JUDGEMENT" mean? Does that make the finalization of my divorce the date of the entry or the date it was filed with the county?
