They keep these records at our local courthouse. You'll have to call your's to find out. The only fee is a copying fee. I assume it's this way everywhere.

Divorce records are kept in the District Clerks Office in the community where the couple was divorced. They are a matter of public record, and can be viewed by anyone. Consent is not needed.
You will likely be able to view the records for free. If you want a copy, there is a fee. Generally, most clerk's office charge a per page fee. Some may have just a set amount. If you want it certified, it will also cost you a little more.

Ask them for it, otherwise you cannot get it without their consent and paying for it.
