Title: Divorce proceedings in 1984
Post by: tulipoo on Thursday 30 May 13 11:20 BST (UK)

I am seeking information about a court case in Scotland in 1984.
I have all the references etc, and from my enquiries this would have been
a matrimonial dispute.
Is it possible to obtain any info from the Scottish Records office or is it permissible
for a person to attend in person to obtain details.
I believe this record is open, but whether this means open to enquiry, I do not know.
I would be gratful for any help or suggestions.
Many thanks,
Ian

Hi Ian,

If you PM me the details,mI will check the catalogue at the NAS. It will give reference number and you can either go personally or make other arrangements to get a copy.
