You don't appear to have a basis for filing one. She hasn't harassed you. If you want closure, just don't have any contact with her.

If your case has not been finalized, talk to an attorney immediately about setting aside the agreement.
Can I do To make sure she doesn’t come after me for child support if i am paying it through Zelle?
answered on Jun 26, 2021
You can pay this way as long as you don't have a court order specifically telling you to pay another way. First, send a dollar to the number and get a text confirmation that she received it. After that confirmation, you can send the full amount knowing she got it. As an extra measure you... View More
He went on the run 2 years ago and I haven't heard from him since. I just got confirmation that he is in Cobb county jail. Last known address was mines in Gwinnett but he gave his family address in Rockdale at the jail. All are 3 different countys in Georgia. Also can he be served in jail?
answered on Jun 18, 2021
He can be served in jail. However, you have to file in the county where he lives. You can file at the address he gave. IF he doesn't object to the case being filed there, it will proceed in whatever county you file in. Talk to an attorney about your options.

No one can give you specific advice about a case in progress without knowing all the facts. As you have a lawyer already, you should ask them.

Is there any advantage or disadvantage to getting a divorce while unemployed? I keep hearing very different opinions on this issue. Who's right?
answered on Jun 16, 2021
Mr. Birchmore's answer is correct. There are too many unknowns to answer your question. Consult with an attorney who can give you advice after hearing all the facts.
I refinanced the house taking my ex-wives name off the mortgage but it remained on the deed. The only thing the divorce decree says is the we will hare the "net equity". The house is selling 6 years after the divorce. What goes in to "net" equity. My realtor says i can take... View More

If your agreement doesn't allow to deduct payments and taxes, you cannot. Net equity is sales price minus closing costs and mortgage. Deducting the payments would mean you got to live there for free for 6 years. You had to pay those somewhere.
Does claiming alcoholism as a fault have any strategic advantage? I have proof as to how it has adversely effected the kids.
answered on Jun 15, 2021
If your 14 year old wants to love with you, that will make your case easier. If you are able to prove she has an alcohol issue, that may impact custody and parenting time.
I committed adultery and my wife filed for divorce. We are still in the middle of the divorce and now she is dating someone. Can that affect her alimony? I have proof of the guy spending the night at her house with our toddler there asleep. Can that affect custody?The case is in Georgia.
answered on Jun 15, 2021
It likely will not affect alimony. In order for it to affect alimony, the adultery needs to be the cause of the separation. It appears that the marriage ended because of your adultery and she is dating now. Whether or not the person spending time overnight with your child there is enough to... View More

If she no longer lives with you, you will have to pay something more than nothing. For now, give her at least $300, but you will need to adjust your budget because support will be owed. There is no way for anyone to tell you how much, because it is a mathematical formula that takes into account a... View More

Based on what you described, it's comingled. However, unless you plan to get divorced, there isn't much to be done if she has now segregated the funds and you have no access to them.

You can file for contempt of court because he is not complying with the court order.

No, but this issue should be addressed with common sense. Don't have a convicted felon, child abuser or drug user as the caregiver. If you do use a caregiver, that person should have your ex wife's contact information and vice versa.

You didn't ask a question, but my advice is to file for divorce in Georgia ASAP. After she is gone 6 months Georgia will lose jurisdiction over the custody of your children.
