Hi all,

Can you please advise how I can find a divorce record and how I go about ordering a replacement certificate.

Thank you in advance.

I've had a look at that and it's loads cheaper if you have the case number, so wondered if I could find this online somewhere?

2003/4 wont be online anywhere,

the court can give you the case number for such a short while ago,then you can apply,lots do it this way when they need the absolute when they are re-marrrying.its usauuly issued about 6 weeks after the degree nisi.
