Connecticut law does not impose any waiting period after your divorce decree is entered. Once the judge signs the order and the clerk enters it, you are legally unmarried and can apply for a new marriage license immediately.
Connecticut has no rules stating that parties to a divorce cannot date during proceedings. However, its imperative to take certain precautions should you choose to do so.
Capacity: The testator must be of sound mind. Signature: The will must be signed by the testator. Witnesses: At least two witnesses must sign a Connecticut last will and testament in the presence of the testator in order for it to be valid.
Under the new law, the person filing for the divorce can now ask the court to waive the 90-day period, provided *specific criteria are met. If the judge agrees that all of the criteria are met, then he or she may waive the waiting period and grant the divorce, in some cases, without a hearing.
Technically, a handwritten will can still meet the requirements of having two witnesses and the testators signatures (properly executed) and be a valid will. However, the handwritten will thats signed by the testator alone is not enough to be valid in Connecticut, although it is in other states, such as Texas.
