My ex husband divorce decree document

When I go for my naturalization test
lady in the office told me that my
documents what I provide 8 years ago
don’t have a divorce certificate of my
ex-husband first divorce. I don’t have
any contact with my ex husband to get
this document. When I apply to get this
document from vital records they told me
that I am not a party so I can’t get
this. I send them a letter from
Immigration Service and they still
refuse to give me this paper. What
should I do?

I should think that these are public records and anyone can obtain them.  Also, i would think that you had to have submitted this document at the time of getting your green card.  can you perhaps look through your documents to see if you can locate it?  If you have a family law attorney who helped you with your divorce, perhaps they might have a copy of this document or at least can obtain it through the system if they practice in family law court.
