Do the other issues - support, custody, alimony, and property - have to be decided before the divorce is final?
The absolute divorce may be granted prior to the court hearing other claims, such as an equitable distribution claim, filed in the same action. And you get the divorce whether or not you and your spouse have resolved any of the other issues arising from your separation, such as custody, spousal and child support, or distribution of property.
