A: Given the short length of the marriage, it is unlikely that he will have to give you any more money if you already recovered what you say he owed. You should contact an attorney about an uncontested divorce.

A: You have the right to divorce him. You should consult with an attorney who can help you with the proper course of action. Marital asset is what was acquired during the course of the marriage.
