What can I do if Spouse refuses to sign divorce papers?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
You have not stated which 'divorce papers' you mean. If the document you are thinking of is a Marital Settlement Agreement which he won't sign, a good way to move things off dead center is to ask the Court for a pre-trial conference, to determine the issues which are contested, and to schedule a trial. That usually gets things moving.

How do you have a divorce dismissed

Answered by attorney Ronda Elizabeth Harris
Divorce lawyer at Harris Law Firm, PLLC
You can file an agreed Motion to Dismiss (signed by both parties).  However, if no action is taken on the case, then the Court will eventually set the case on its dismissal docket.  If no one shows up for the dismissal hearing to argue as to why the case should be retained on the docket, then the Court will dismiss the case without need of any further action by the parties.  Keep in mind, the downside of waiting for the Court to dismiss could mean months and months of waiting.  The time frame is different for each Court depending on the Judge and the Court's docket.

After I am married, am I entitled to part of the interest on his money market account or can he keep it all and reinvest?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney John F Brennan (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Musilli Brennan Associates, PLLC
Generally income which accrues during the marriage is joint. On the other hand, if he has investment accounts which are in his own name and which accrued previous to the marriage, those accumulations would generally be separate property as well. You really need to have an attorney looked into the situation to determine your rights. As an aside, as you are not yet married yet concerned about this, I would suggest that you might rethink entering into the relationship. Such concerns do not bode well for a planned life union.
