What can I do if my fiance abandoned me and left me with the bills?

Answered by attorney Seth David Schraier
Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Seth D. Schraier, P.C.
Since you were not married during this whole time, then she has no legal obligation in relation to her relationship to you. Unless any of the bills are in both of your names, then you will be responsible for all the bills that are just under your name.

Can the court determine the divorce finalized since it’s been so long or what else can I do to finalize it?

Annette M Cox Sandoval
Answered by attorney Annette M Cox Sandoval (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Cox Sandoval Law, PLLC
If a response has been filed, then you can request a trial before the judge and simply ask that he rule. If you have proof that you have reached certain agreements with your ex, then you can present that as a rule 69 agreement (must be in writing and signed) and ask that the judge enter those agreements as orders. If there has not been any response filed, then you can proceed via default and ask that the judge enter a Default Decree based upon what was outlined in the initial petition. I would suggest consulting an attorney if you have more questions.

What action may I take against my wife for publishing my personal information online?

Answered by attorney Amanda Bowden Johnson
Divorce lawyer at The Houser Law Firm, P.C.
When you say what action can you take, I assume you mean legal action. The action I would take would most definitely not be legal! However, in terms of things you can legally do, it will depend on what laws she has violated, if any in publishing your credit report. If that amounts to a crime, you may seek to have her arrested and prosecuted. If you were damaged in any way as a result of the online shenagians, you may also have a civil suit. Presumably you are divorcing her to get away from her, so my advice would be to quit fretting about her pathetic online postings and move on. Besides, this kind of things happens frequently and all that happens is that the person posting this type of crap comes off like a bitter, used up old hag who no one pays attention to except for other bitter used up old hags. You know - you've seen them huddled together in a group at a coffee shop, wearing sweaters and all hunched over, cackling at each other through the permanent scowels on their face. What you really need is a hot young girlfriend. I can tell you do not have a hot young girlfriend because if you did - you wouldn't care one bit what your soon to be ex is posting. There is some humor here but truth as well.
