All depends on what it is for. If he was involved I think he would be. If he found out it could create problems. I agree with most comments already given and that is you should see a lawyer and get the right advice. That way you won't get any nasty surprises later on.

Not likely....you were only married for a year and you came into the marraige with these things.  Get a good lawyer and you should be fine.  Find a flat rate divorce attorney....it will cost you more up front, (and possible  a little more in the end) but you won't get nickel and dimed with every phone call, email, and paper that needs written/filed.  Good luck....and it really does gt better!

If you are legally married,you are entitled to half of his possessions, that is if you did not signed a Prenup. You can even get money for the time you have been separated, that is alimomy.Also the court will obligate the person to pay fully the amount owed for child sopport That is, The time that he never paid). It doesnt matter if you have not been together, legally you are his wife .

You can sue, but that doesn't mean you can be successful at a lawsuit.\n\nIf the "something that supposedly happened" was that long ago, a lawsuit will probably be dismissed because of the statute of limitations.\n\nYou need to consult with a California attorney to protect your own interests, as well as those of your husband.

No.  This is covered by state law so it varies, but the spouse generally gets everything in the absence of a will - especially community property.  If there is no spouse, then the next of kin would get it.\n\nIf it's not too late already and you have substantial assets, consider getting a living trust.  You can avoid probate which can cost you 15% of the estate!

Check with the local social security office.  I don't think divorced people can claim each others Social Security benefits.

So he doesn't have to pay what? The money for buying your share in the home? \n\nDivorceNet.com says: "Basically, the family court will not split up the family home, divide pensions, and apportion any stocks or mutual funds until it receives permission from the Bankruptcy Court."\n\nALSO\n\n". If my husband files for bankruptcy can I still enforce the terms of the divorce judgment?\nThe Bankruptcy Code recently made non-support obligations created in connection with a divorce or separation non-dischargeable in Chapter 7 if the discharge of the obligation would harm the non- debtor spouse more than it would benefit the debtor. 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(15)." \n\nFROM  www.uls.state.ut.us: "Can I Get Rid of All My Debts?\nNot always.  A bankruptcy generally will not rid you of debts for child support, taxes, alimony, fines, and many student loans, as well as debts incurred by fraud or malicious injury.  Under some circumstances a debtor can be denied discharge of all his debts as opposed to certain specific debts.  If this happens the primary reason for filing bankruptcy is defeated."\n\nThere is more for you to read at each site listed below. But from what I see he won't be able to stiff you on what he owes you for your part of the house. Make sure you discuss this with your divorce attorney asap! You need to be sure he can't screw you over like this.\n\nI pray you get the money you are due and that he gets a kick where it counts. God Bless!

It all depends on what state you live in. Where I live if I own the house before marriage than it stays in my name if you bought it together than you will have to have a good lawyer to fight for the house.

This has nothing whatever to do with marital property rights, community property or anything else. (Although would be important in other circumstances.) But here, your name is on the deed.\n\nIf your name is on the deed then you have an interest in the property. If the deed is simply to you and your spouse with nothing further stated then your interest is the same as your husband's.

Kansas is not a community property state.\n\nSo the question is, was the car that she was driving registered to you? Are you on the Title of the car?\n\nIs your wife on the title of any property that you own?\n\nDo you have any joint assets with your wife.... bank accounts, investments, where you both are on Title?\n\nAny businesses where both of you are listed as owners?\n\nThe plaintiff's cannot go after your income. However, if you answered yes to any of the questions, the law suit could be amended to include you as a defendant, and after judgment, the plaintiffs could go after your properties, business, and assets for payment.\n\nWhile it might be too late, you should probably put any assets and property, where there is joint title, in your sole name, before you are named as a co-defendant, and before the plaintiffs do an asset search.\n\nOne last thing... whether she moves in with you or not is irrelevant.

Yes, as long as you are seperated. You usually have to go in front of a judge.

That depends.  If the cash was to pay off certain items or to share your 1/2 of the assets, then no.  If it's for some sort of back pay for spousal support, then you do have to claim it.

Yes you can. It would have to be a joint divorce, with your spouse would probably have to do the filing of the paperwork.

It really depends on the state. Which lawyer were you talking to? Hers? Yours?  \n\nIn many states only the wifes 1/2 of the community property is hers.

On a federal level there are no affects to transferring assets between spouses.  Some states such as California are community property states, which means that all assets are considered to be owned by both spouses.

you can put what ever you want on your claim.  phone charges, loss of wage, whatever.  if you win, its up to the judge what is granted or not. he could grant a partial ammount of your claim. if i were to guess i would say, that he wouldn't grant you the loss of wages.  however, you may try and claim the filing fee.
