"Contested" means that the parties do not agree on some issue or statement of facts pertaining to the matter before the court. There will be a hearing before the judge where each party will present their position. The judge will make a decision at that hearing or within a short period thereafter and will then issue a court order. The court order will be binding on both parties unless there is an appeal made to a higher court.

What if I got married- got a divorce- got remarried and found out years later that the divorce was contested?

A contested divorce means the parties aren't in agreement as to the issues or/and division of property. There is a hearing and the court renders a decision and decree. As long as there was a divorce decree issued then you were legally divorced. You can contact the court and request a copy of the decree if you are not certain of your status.A contested divorce means the parties aren't in agreement as to the issues or/and division of property.
