Get in contact with a lawyer, have them advertise in the paper in the Legal section (like 30 or 90 days) they will tell you, if your husband doesnt respond or put up a fight you will automatically be granted your divorce.

can't you explain all this to your divorce judge?  that you are on medical retirement for a reason?  because you're medically unable to work, now?  you could give up your retirement, but what if you don't get it back?  you don't want to give it up just to get more sick.  i understand child support, but alimony seems a bit of a stretch.  i would consider a part time job, perhaps, to supplement income.  surely this would be okay.

CONTACT THE COURTHOUSE AND ASK FOR A TRANSCRIPT OF THE DIVORCE---IT MAY HAVE A SMALL FEE CONNECTED TO THE DOCUMENT.

Wal-Mart does a lot of unfair employment practices, but that is another battle all together.  Technically, yes, they can do that, because they can use the excuse that they do not someone with a criminal record to hold the position he currently holds.  Some places can demand an absolutely immaculate record.\n\nNow as for you and your kids, do you make enough to be able to support them on your own?  If not, the court will likely order your husband to pay child support should you decide to divorce and are granted custody.  It's a pain to go to court, but you gotta do what you gotta do.  Men need to understand that hitting a woman is NEVER ok.  EVER.\n\nIt's likely that if he is found guilty, he will be deemed an unfit parent and you will be automatically granted custody of your children.  Then, depending on your income, he will likely be made to pay child support, and if he does lose his job, the court has programs and methods to help him find a new one.\n\nIf you are low-income (just your income), most cities have free or cheap healthcare for low-income families and individuals.  For example, I live in New Mexico and University of New Mexico Hospital offers free healthcare with only small copays for doctors visits and small charges for prescriptions to people who make less than $20,000 per year.  Spousal support and child support do not usually need to be included in that.\n\nSpeaking of spousal support, you may be entitled to that, or "alimony" as well.  If you have been married more than 7 years (in most states) and you had the reasonable expectation that your husband would be the family's primary financial provider for the rest of your life, he may have to pay not only to support the children, but to support you too.  This is a little trickier to get than child support, so you might want to speak with a good, experienced lawyer.\n\nWell, I hope that all helps!

I deal with POAs very often, so I'll speak to you first as a professional. The first thing you need to know is that he is incurring into elderly abuse (legally speaking), under the mental abuse section. Secondly, as Traveldiva said, he is not the controller of her life - a POA, in NO INSTANCE gives anyone control over someone's life unless it's a healthcare durable power of attorney, and then ONLY if the person does not have the physical ability to make any single decision. In all other cases, a POA only gives rights and control over financial matters (however, he CANNOT, legally speaking too, do ANYthing without the grantor's approval if the grantor is of sound mind and capable of speech). I gather from what you say that he has only a financial power of attorney (and is taking every advantage he can). He is *100% wrong* in believing that the POA he has gives him the right to do what he wants WITHOUT CONSULTING THE FAMILY.\n\nNow, what you need to do is inform mum that she needs to *revoke* the POA and issue a new one to whomever she and you guys think it's best. A POA is revokable at any point in time as long as the person is of sound mind (legally, this means that the person is able to speak and that she or he has not been committed to a mental facility or declared mentally unstable or unfit to take care of her or his own affairs by a legal authority or institution) and able to make decisions. Obviously the decision is hers and it can involve whomever she wants, but it is 100% revokable. HIS OBLIGATION (moral and contractual) IS TO THE GRANTOR AND HER OR HIS FAMILY, not to himself.\n\nNow, from a personal standpoint, I'd say that if he is incurring into the kind of treatment you say, he could get worse, and his only interest would be money, and he'd be pushing her further into the cheapest-living facilities in order to keep whatever insurance money she has to her name, such as health or life insurance. Don't allow this abuse of the poor woman.\n\nI hope Ih elped a little. Feel free to write with any questions, my e-mail is on my profile.\n\nBest of luck to you and mum!

I am truly sorry there is no easy answer for this.  As difficult as it may sound,  ask your soon to be ex for help or to end the divorce quickly.  As long as you are still married lenders still consider debts to be jointly held.  Your pending divorce will scare them.  If nothing else,  get away form the jerk you are with.  I know from experince that abuse, even if only witnessed, is more devestating to children than poverty.

I believe that in most states you can.  If there is an official child support order in place and he has not paid it, then after you turn 18 and you are a legal adult, you should be able to.  I like other people's answer about checking with your local officials.

He must live in Delaware County, PA. There's NOTHING he can do....if he gets an additional job, they'll find out, and attach THOSE wages too. Then, when he gets tired of working TWO jobs and he quits the part time gig, they'll hold him in contempt for not paying the full amount. His best bet is to find some work under the table IN ADDITION to his full time job. Maybe they won't find out about the cash job, and you all can get caught up with your bills and such. HTH! \n\nP.S. Don't pay ANY MORE G.D. lawyers...they don't give a damn about you, your husband, or the kids. And neither does Domestic Relations....all they care about is $$$. TRUST ME.

Go to the Navy and let them know that he is not living up to his obligations.  This should have been done before he deployed.  The majority of his pay should have been going to you.  If you want to get a divorce, then get a job and do it.  Good luck

It is sad that he has resorted to this.  But the even sadder part is that there is little that can be done.\n\nLike you said, you could try the "potential income" thing, but you would have to pay an atty and who knows how much it would cost and whether or not it would work.\n\nAnd since you can't trace money he makes under the table, you are also out of luck there unless he leaves a paper trail some how.  (if he gets paid by check for the work and makes regular deposits into his checking account you MIGHT have a chance at something)\n\nI think people like that should be shot. Plain and simple.\n\nYour state should have a pro bono program.  If you are really broke, you can fill out the paperwork and get an atty. to help you for free.  You will have a better chance than doing it yourself.  Your atty. can subpoena evidence, and knows the laws and case law behind what you are trying to do.\n\nGood luck. I can't imagine how hard it is not to physically harm your ex...

You may not be able to, but the court can.  Is he under court order to pay child support?  Ask an attorney to follow up.\n\nI wish you Peace.

No one ever said Divorce and Mediation was going to be easy, that's a little inside joke, SO let me ask you this On the child's birth Certificate Did your Ex-husband signed the part where it has the name of the Father of the Child ? does the child have his last name ? those are two matters that are important to you and the baby right now, Yes there is Help in situations like this and most women that face this same problem are not aware of their rights and don't know what services are available in the state of Oklahoma, the SRS office isn't just set up for people going on welfare and food stamps, We are here to help you, If you are a legal resident of the state of Oklahoma, you have rights in this State that you don't have in other States, that's why people move from State to State to get these rights, and lucky for you and your child, maybe that's why more people are getting divorced because of those rights, because women are really getting screwed over, when their husband Divorce them, The DNA test won't cost you anything if he's contesting the birth of the child after he signed the birth Cert, and has his last name on birth cert, because I'm sure like all young men in this State do find out in the end, He had plenty of time 120 days after the child was born to contest the birth then, and If he's using this as a divorce reason then SRS can help assist you and the child to conclude a DNA sample by getting it court ordered for him to have this done, Here's the fun part sweety ! If he is the Father he'll have to pay the state for getting this test done, $350.50 and he'll be ordered to pay child support from the day he filed for Divorce, That comes to around park figure of about $380.00 per month up to $425.00 per month yes this is just on one child, the discount comes from the Second child, this was done due to cost of living in the state of Oklahoma, If you know someone making less than that have them to go back to court to have their child support updated, If you need assistance contact the SRS in your county and they will assist you in this matter, By law I can't give you to much advice, unless you're assigned to me as you case worker. And I've been working for the state for over 22 years now. Not all male case workers are that bad and we're not out to get back at the women here...LOL..Besides I can really see your point on being upset when your husband is playing games with you and the child there, and continues to mess around by blaming you for it too... Give us a chance to teach these guys a lesson for you too, maybe word will get around better after we are done... LOL

Find out who was his lawyer - maybe they can help.  Do you know who was the executor.  Can you remember at the time any dealings with regard to property or lawyers that can at least give you a starting point.  I do not think that wills are public property so you would need the lawyer or executor's permission.

Contact the clerk of court and try to make arrangements that way, or you could get an attorney and they could go and ask for a continuance for you.
