Decree absolute query

If I request a copy of the absolute from the court , will it show up even if the names on the paperwork are in an incorrect order ie Elizabeth Jane Jones instead of Jane Elizabeth jones ? Or does it need to be exact ? The name is not English and is sometimes written in a different order

Do you have the case number?

No only the names

I would put both versions on the form.

Cooltalkin · 06/04/2021 08:09

The trouble is the name is 4 words so I don’t know in what order they are
So would the system pick it up regardless of the order ?

The DA will show the names in the same way that they appear on the marriage certificate unless the court was ever told one or other had changed their names.
