Asked on Jul 09th, 2015 on Divorce - California
More details to this question:
I filed for divorce in December 2005, but we did not go before the judge to finalize it until November 2011. Was I considered still married between Dec. 2005 - Nov. 20, 11 or Feb 2012, when it was noted on this date to be final ?

Yes. You might need the judgment to terminate marital status "nunc pro tunc" (inferiority complex language for "retroactively"). You might be able to amend it to do so.

You were married until you got a document entitled notice of entry of judgment.
