My dad bought a property in TX and we are both in the title. I need to separate that property from marriage community property in case I get divorced. My wife is in agreement with this approach as my dad is the owner of the property and I am just in the title in case he passes. Is this something... Read more »
First, I'd want to know more about how the property was acquired in the first place. Are you sure it's community property? If it was given to only you as a gift even after marriage (eg, because your dad paid for 100% of the land but put you on the deed), it's still likely separate... Read more »

Talk to your divorce attorney about filing an application for a family violence protective order.
Its a mutual agreement. We don't have kids, property or any kind of attachments together.
You have the right to represent yourself in a divorce, but the better course of action is to obtain the help of competent counsel who can assure that your rights are secured and that you correctly follow all procedures. Costly mistakes can result from minor procedural mistakes.
Defamation and subjective language were used ex parte for a writ to a child's body, after an action (motion) was in place for full custody, after numerous bouts of maternal child abuse and maternal fraud were evident. The child was then subsequently returned to the maternal abuser against... Read more »
I apologize for the snarky tone of my previous response. I can't remove it, so I will try again to answer your specific question regarding the language in a writ:
Arguing over the language is probably not the best use of your time and effort. One of the many reasons that wise... Read more »

I would suggest that you reach out to a local family law attorney in your area (Irving) so the attorney can sit down with you, learn what's been filed so far in the matter and better understand the facts surrounding your situation.

And while i was visiting india we got divorced there. I am back to usa but my records still shows that i am still married to my ex... Read more »
I am not sure what records you are trying to update. But, contact someone where you are trying to update the records and ask them what they need in order to update your records. Also, you should order a certified copy of your divorce decree just in case you need it.
I need to leave my husband and he had threatened to take my son if I ever try to leave. I have no family or friends. No where to leave to in town.
If there is no court order in place restricting your residence you can move. However, your spouse could file a motion requesting you move back because it is not in the best interest of the child to be moved. But, you get to also counter his argument that it is in the best interest of the child.... Read more »
The postal service attempted to serve his paperwork to my address rather than his. I called his post office and they said it must have gotten forwarded because he hadn’t checked his mail in months so she put him on the moved list! I had my mail forwarded to my new address and she said it must... Read more »
Usually you have to serve the other person in person through a private process server or constable, unless you get permission from a judge to serve them via certified mail. It doesn’t sound like you do here. So you would need to serve them in person by a process server. If certified mail service... Read more »
PAYING THE MORTGAGE ALONE HAS PUT ME IN A BIND FINANCIALLY. THE HOME WILL NOT SELL FOR THE AMOUNT NEEDED TO NOT OWE THE BANK MONEY. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS?
Get a lawyer to possibly get a hearing date sooner than play the waiting game, so the court can make some orders regarding the house. It may come down to selling the house at a loss. Or the court may order her to pay half the mortgage until it’s sold.
My ex took me to court 4 years ago and reduced my child support by almost half, because he no longer worked a corporate job but instead became self employed. Fast forward to now... He is currently over 11K behind in child support even at the reduced amount. And trying to have the amount reduced yet... Read more »
OAG is unlikely to do that much work. You should probably get a private attorney. Those records will need to be subpoenaed.
It should state the parties had these children born during the marriage, but their parental rights were terminated, and attach a copy of the order terminating parental rights as an exhibit.
I heard if you never applied for state marriage license then it's only legal there. Nothing is in her name and no children together
If you’re married then you’re married, doesn’t matter where you got married. You have to get a divorce first.
My husband filed for divorce. I have two documents: Respondent's Original Answer and Waiver of Service (Only). Which one do I need to file? Thank you.
File the answer if you intent to claim your rights. File a waiver if you don’t oppose anything and are okay with him basically going to court without you and asking for what he wants. Sometimes waivers will allow for that if you aren’t careful. Sometimes a waiver only waives service but you are... Read more »
From waiver of service to the decree and was signed. Not noticed until later. Supposed to be final in June
It should be amended and corrected to prevent any possible issues.
If you’re the beneficiary of an application filed by your citizen spouse, the length of time you must wait after you get your green card, before you can apply for citizenship can be different. If you’re married to a US citizen you can apply 3 years after getting your green card. If you aren’t... Read more »
Both of our names are on the loans/cars. My husband is in jail for sexual abuse of my son and we are not allowed to speak, but I can't afford to pay all bills on my own and need some answers.
If I'm not able to do that until a divorce is finalized (because I will be filing for... Read more »

It comes down to whether or not you held yourself out to public as husband and wife. To determine that, a divorce would have to be filed, the other party can contest it, and the judge would take into consideration a variety of factors (joint accounts, joint ownership of property, joint tax returns,...

he has not paid the taxes on the land and it is still 100% in my name as owner, Is there a limitation on getting it transferred, do I get to keep the land if I pay the taxes, to use as collateral or sale.
Presumably the divorce decree awarded the property to him, and then by signing the Special Warranty Deed you have confirmed that grant to him. Therefore, the property no longer in your name, no matter who the tax bills are going to.
If you want it back, you could buy it back a the tax... Read more »
