Q: Married 20+ husband own two houses. I don't work and have 5 kids. Am i entitled to something?
He wont come to a agreement and keeps stalling. he also has a abuse record.
A:
More information is required to answer this question fully, and you should have an attorney of your own if there is going to be a contest as to children or property. Indiana is a community property state, so anything acquired during the divorce is marital property that is presumed to be split 50/50. If your husband is stalling and you want to move things along, file a motion for a hearing, either provisional, or final depending where you are in the process. Again, a lot more information is needed before I can go any further, you should have an attorney who is familiar with all the facts advising you and working to protect your interests in your divorce.
Best of luck!
