I was divorced in 1981 in California and the court there can find no record of it. What to do on my almost ready I-130 for my new wife? What options do I have if it cannot be located?

You still have contact with ex-wife?? perhaps she has a copy..Did you try Hall of Records out of Sacramento??

Because we have a son together, we still have some contact. Her copy of the decree is incomplete (lost during moves over the years she thinks). She is going to send me coy of what she has though. I have never been directed to the Hall of Records...I'll look into that. My ex was able to tell me the date I was served, the date of her first court appearance and the name of the presiding judge. I'll call them today and see if this additional info can help them find it.

I was also asking in my original post, what the options are (if any) for the I-130 application and process in the event that the divorce decree just cannot be found.

Thanks to everyone who has replied.

Was an attorney involved with the divorce case? If so, perhaps they could be of some help.

No, it was a "no fault" divorce in California.
