DOMSLUT is the title
then it says:

Med till�mpning av 3 kap 2 & och 4 & f�rsta stycket lagen (1904:26 s 1) om vissa internationella r�ttsf�rhallanden rorande aktenskap och formynderskap domer tingstratten enligt 5 kap 1 & aktenskapsbalken till aktenskapsskillnad mellan parterna.

I want to know if this paper is the final decision from the divorce or only the paper to say the divorce process has started.

Thanks

Nordstedts gives:
\'divorce\', \'dissolution of marriage\' and \'decree absolute\' as translations of Äktenskapsskillnad - this would suggest the court ruling is a final decision rather than the initiation of the process - however, it is not until the ruling \'vinner laga kraft\' i.e. comes into force, that the marriage is actually dissolved.

(Äktenskapsbalken kap 5, §6)
När dom på äktenskapsskillnad vinner laga kraft, är äktenskapet upplöst

Peer comment(s):

agree Christine Andersen : This is most usual in English Law and would not be wrong in most other contexts. Where in the world are your divorcees? It might make a difference!

Thank-you Christine
agree Helen Johnson : Yes - you can't really tell whether it's decree nisi or decree absolute from what I can see, as 'domslut' could apply to either - it signifies a court decision as far as I know.
