The house is under my name only.

I agree with the last answer. Also the fact that she did not work during the marriage does n to impact her property interest in marital property.

I know he went back to Michigan and I know the general area he probably is staying but I don't know for sure where in Michigan he is. He probably also won't sign the papers even if I can track him down to serve him. He said he wouldn't let me divorce him but does he really have a... Read more »

house again. The rabbit hasn't hurt anybody and the only problem that they've mentioned is uncleanliness. Is there any legal basis behind that or is he bluffing?

He has never sent any money, they barely have any contact by phone. I just want a Divorce.

My wages were being garnished for back child support/maintenance and the checks were going directly to my ex and not through an agency.
I thought when I didn't owe any more money the garnishments would automatically stop. After a year of overpaying ($10,000) what can I do to get this... Read more »
