Woman Gets Divorce Papers 42 Years Later
<snip>

AMMAN (Reuters) - A Jordanian woman received formal divorce papers 42 years after her husband left, and long after she remarried and had children, the official Petra news agency said on Sunday.

The 68-year-old man divorced his wife verbally in 1962, but only registered his new marital status two weeks ago, when he needed to apply for an official identity card, Petra said.

In Islam, a man is considered divorced from his wife after declaring it to her verbally three times.
