The court has the power to make orders that the court determines to be in the best interest of the children. Best bet is get an attorney if you don't already have one.

No, he can't force you to return to Texas, thank goodness, I'm a Boomer Sooner fan, and this is the big weekend for us. If you rely on him for financial support, he could attempt to force you to return by stopping it.

Nothing in my divorce papers that say my child can't be around my live in girlfriend so does the ex have any say in who is around or at my house?

Some decrees will have language that prohibits this. If not covered in your decree and mother has an issue with this, bottom line is it will boil down to if the court thinks it's in the child's best interest and this will depend on many factors. Schedule a consultation with an attorney... View More

You are allowed to have a boyfriend during a divorce. With the facts you presented I would certainly recommend that you hire an attorney. It would not be the best idea to live together during this time and sometimes the judge will even issue a court order saying you cannot.

Property acquired during your marriage and before separation is marital property subject to an equitable division. Hire an attorney to protect your interests!
No property in both of our names.

You should consult with an attorney on whether you are common law married. If you are common law married though you must file for a divorce.

Sorry I didn't see your question earlier. Probably the fastest way for a divorce would be to file in the Arkansas case, and ask for a divorce there. Or in the alternative, see a lawyer in your county in Oklahoma about filing here.
