12-1831. Scope
Courts of record within their respective jurisdictions shall have power to declare
rights, status, and other legal relations whether or not further relief is or could be
claimed. No action or proceeding shall be open to objection on the ground that a
declaratory judgment or decree is prayed for. The declaration may be either affirmative
or negative in form and effect; and such declarations shall have the force and effect of
a final judgment or decree.
