Public Divorce Records And Free Marriage Licenses

By Claire Dowell


Marriages often fail because of emotional disconnections, unresolved conflicts, disaffection and a whole lot more. A combination of these negative influences can pretty much destroy what's left of that marriage. While it is true that divorces cause pain, distrust and broken dreams, the separation will also herald an opportunity to let go. Such ordeals are experienced by 6,646 couples that succumb to a divorce on a daily basis.

Records of divorce are archived for a great deal of intentions. Primarily, the purpose of these documents is to present a comprehensive account of all things that occurred within a divorce proceeding. Additionally, divorce records are concrete proofs that a marriage has been legally severed upon the decision of a Judge in a Court of Law. The rich source of information found within divorce records is helpful for intentions such as background checks. Furthermore, divorce records are commonly pursued by persons who wish to marry again because the procurement of a new marriage license usually requires such documents.

Regulations observed with regards to the stockpiling, protection and dissemination of divorce records vary from one state to another. In Arkansas, different divorce documents are disseminated by county and state repositories. Copies of divorce decrees are disseminated on a county level via the County Clerk's or Circuit Clerk's offices. On the other hand, divorce records and divorce coupons are held by the Arkansas Department of Health, Vital Records Division. Certified copies of such documents are issued by these county and state institutions.

In order to obtain Arkansas divorce records, simply complete the divorce application form that is available from the website of the Arkansas Department of Health, specifically at the section of the Vital Records office. The following information must be affixed in the said form for accuracy: Any government-issued photo identification, the complete names of the husband and the wife, along with the wife's maiden name, the date of the divorce or dismissal, the county in which the divorce was settled, your relationship to the parties involved in the divorce, and the rationale for obtaining a copy the divorce record. There is a $10.00 processing for each copy requested, and must be sent via check or money order payable, along with the completed application form to the address of the said state-wide repository.

Pursuant to the Arkansas Vital Records Statute 20-18-305, the general public is prohibited from accessing and procuring copies of these documents. Only a limited category of parties that includes being a relative of the divorcees, an appointed representative, an academic research group, and any person who can demonstrate his or her rights for procuring such documents are allowed to obtain these documents. For policies surrounding the procurement of divorce decrees, contact the County Clerk or the Circuit Clerk of the county the particular divorce was filed and eventually granted.

The process of searching and retrieving divorce and other public records can now be executed with utmost ease and convenience with the help of today's technology. This is done by pulling out a quick search about a person's information in any government or private owned records retrieval solutions. Such modern alternatives can dish out a desired record within minutes, and potentially acquire them after a few days. Because the concept of convenience is greatly upheld by such approaches, it has become a rather popular search endeavor performed over the Internet.
