6. Judgment: After trial, the court will make a judgment according to the relevant laws and regulations and the actual situation.
7. Enforcement: If one party refuses to accept the judgment, it can appeal to a higher court. If the judgment comes into effect, both parties need to implement it according to the content of the judgment and complete the divorce procedure.
