The Full Faith and Credit Clause most often comes into play in court matters. For example Allen sues Bill in Florida, and the Florida court awards Allen $50,000 in damages. Bill cannot escape payment of the damages by moving to Iowa, because Allen could simply ask the Iowa courts to enforce the damage award from Florida. The Full Faith and Credit Clause has two exceptions. First it applies to civil, not criminal cases. One State can not enforce the laws of another State, criminal trials are held in the State where the crime takes place. The second exception deals with divorce cases, was the person who obtains the divorce in fact a resident of the State that granted the divorce?

The person who gets the divorce need not actually be a resident of the state that granted the divorce.

Explanation:

Documents that prove a person's marital status is valid in all 50 states of the country, regardless of whether the person who owns that document is a resident, or if he or she is a natural, of the state that provided and officialized it.

Divorce documents fall into this category. Therefore, a person can divorce in Florida, for example, without being a resident of Florida. Even so, the divorce document written and made official in Florida would be valid in any other state, regardless of the state in which the holder of the document decides to reside.
