It likely has to do with title to property.
For example, if she was awarded a motor vehicle in your divorce decree but the title registration was not changed before she moved, she might have recorded the decree in Texas so she could register the motor vehicle in her sole name in Texas.

This is the house she and her husband live in. Can she sell the house, he is not on the deed. This is in Tennessee

From your limited facts, I don't see why not. If she's solely on the deed, she could convey it. If there's a pending divorce, the situation would be different. Consult local counsel to address any concerns you may have.

You should discuss all this with your attorney. But if she passed during the divorce proceeding, then there's no more divorce.

Annulments are very rare and difficult to obtain. You might have grounds, but if you can get him to agree to an Irreconcilable Differences Divorce, it will be far cheaper and quicker. Hire a competent attorney to advise about this, including looking for divorce grounds in the near future.

Yes. It's possible. But you can also sell the house during the divorce and split the proceeds and move on. First recommendation is that you get everything in writing in a proper marital dissolution agreement, which you'll need anyways. Second, you would be wise to get an attorney to... View More

Start calling various Court Clerks with divorce jurisdiction in any County where he may have been a Party. It could be in another State. Another Relative probably has an idea where the Divorce occurred. It may help to suspect a certain time frame.
