Read a random definition: listing agreement

A quick definition of order nisi:

An order nisi is a court order that will become final unless someone shows the court why it should be changed. It is often used in divorce cases. A decree is a final decision made by a court, either in a specific type of case or as a general judgment. There are many different types of decrees, including custody decrees, divorce decrees, and consent decrees. Some decrees can be modified if circumstances change, while others are final and cannot be changed.

A more thorough explanation:

An order nisi is a court order that will become final unless the affected party shows the court, within a specified time, why it should be set aside. It is often used in matrimonial cases, such as divorce.

For example, in a divorce case, the court may issue an order nisi granting one spouse custody of the children. If the other spouse disagrees with the order, they must show the court why it should be changed within a certain time frame. If they do not, the order will become final.
