No and the denial of alimony is one of your issues on appeal. Your lawyer needs to get busy drafting the appellate brief.

You do not just file for an annulment. It takes alot of proof to have no marriage declared, so they are almost nonexistent. Divorce will be your cause of action. Without proof of adultery or physical abuse, you will need an agreement about all property, children and debts. Hire an attorney.

Rarely would any TRO prohibit filing suit or service of process. Unless TRO specifically says this, your lawyer should get him served. If TRO actually prohibits a suit and process, which I doubt, then you have to go to the Court which issued the TRO and ask to modify it.

If the bondsman asks the Court to exonerate him, then the Judge may set a bond or possibly release you on your own recognizance. But 4 years is a long time not to go to trial. Talk to your lawyer.

It is not legal for your child's father to stop her from coming over to your house during your scheduled custody time. You both have the right to equal parenting time with your child, and he cannot interfere with that right simply because he does not like your partner.
