How couple can reconcile after divorce

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a lawyer had explained how a couple could reconcile after a court granted them a divorce.

According to the barrister, there is a window for possible reconciliation after a divorce is granted. She said couples can still reconcile with each other even after a court granted them a divorce. She said a court only grants a decree nisi during divorce and that it lasts for three months before it becomes effective.

A decree nisi is an order by a court of law stating the date on which a marriage will end unless a good reason not to grant a divorce is produced. She added that a divorced couple could still approach the court to discontinue the divorce during this period.
