The property will be awarded to both of you. You might try to get the house sold in the probate court. Generally the house would be considered the separate property of each of you in the divorce.

So much for trusting a guy who was trying to defraud the government! She will need to hire a lawyer, and file a Motion to Modify. Also probably write the Commanding Officer of his base and share all the details. Good luck.

My soon to be ex husband is in prison and he sold all the vehicles to his cousin who is in prison with him for a dollar so I wouldn't be able to get them in the divorce

You have a right to all of her school records as a start. The statute follows. You need to take this, together with a copy of your divorce papers to the school, and discuss the matter again.

I was never informed by my attorney about this nor the Judge either. I didn't sign anything either. It is just circled on the arraignment minutes document. The Judge is Biased as hell too so I feel I need this in order to have a shot at winning.
