You don't say how the dog is listed in the divorce decree. If the decree says she gets the dog and it has not been signed by the Judge - don't sign the decree. If the decree says she gets the dog and the Judge has signed the decree then the decree is enforceable. Dogs are considered... Read more »

Off and about 22 head of cattle? And being verbally abused for 10 yrs?
Regular verbal abuse doesn't count as domestic violence under Texas law but it can if it includes threats to inflict injury, pain, or property damage. Talk to your divorce lawyer.

Property inherited prior to marriage. Has been refinanced with both names on deed. Mortgage payments have been paid from joint bank account. Married almost 20 years. How would property be divided in divorce?
Since it's been refinanced and your spouse added to the deed, the court will likely say that the asset is sufficiently commingled that it is marital property subject to equitable distribution.
This is what the judge said to my ex-wife at the ruling of the division of property, "don't worry you'll come out on top, he'll die before you, he's in bad health and smokes" after I was not allowed my witnesses because my ex-wife said one of them talk to his wife on... Read more »
It's impossible to say without reviewing the complete transcript to determine context. Also, without know what the judgment of divorce says, it's impossible to tell if the judge abused his or her discretion.

Ex has been incarcerated since 2018 to present. Am I responsible to store his belongings after divorce was final and gave him 90 days?
Also, if I was to pay ex for equity of home and nor him or his attorney provided Deed of Trust address. Do I still have to pay? Is there a statute of limitations?
As to your ex’s belongings. What I recommend is that you send him a letter, while he’s in jail, telling him that he has 30 days to have someone (preferably family) pick up his belongings and that if no one comes within 30 days, you will dispose of his things as you see fit.
As to your... Read more »

If you are the listed beneficiary of an insurance policy, you would contact the insurance company to determine the payout decision. It is entirely possible that you were removed as the beneficiary of the policies.
My husband and I were married in TX, where we lived together several years. We also lived together in Washington DC. My husband still lives in DC and I now live in FL.
In which State do I file for divorce?
The law in Florida is that you can file for divorce here after being a continuous resident for six months. It sounds like your husband could probably fie in DC but he would need to check with a local lawyer there.
I am going to be moving, hopefully in the next 30 days or so, and his things are still here after continued attempts to have him collect – I have multiple messages that are ignored, some that are saying he will come soon, some saying he doesn’t want any of it. I mentioned to him that at some... Read more »
Put all of his belongings in a storage unit in his name. Pay for one month of storage. Mail him the key and storage contract by certified mail and keep a copy. This should protect you from damages for wasting his property.
i think the arrangement will be court-ordered. Would it matter if it were just an "agreement?"
I'm on disability. Spouse is the working party
Online calculator says $800/mo alimony
If there is a court "order" for alimony, the other payor is obligated to pay until the court order is over or vacated. If they stop working or retire early, they are still obligated to make the payment and failure to do so can be punished by contempt of court.

It does sound like you have a lot going on. You should consult with an attorney who can review the case in detail and provide you with guidance. If you can’t afford an attorney try contacting Legal Aid to see if you qualify for assistance.
