If a couple gets married in one state does state law where they live apply in the divorce?

No. Generally speaking the laws of the jurisdiction in which you reside at the time you file for a dissolution of marriage apply to your case, not those of the jurisdiction where you married. Unless, of course, they are the same jurisdiction.

Can my husband sole provider for the family making $250,000 file for divorce then refuse to give me money for a lawyer?

Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Answered by attorney Monica H. Donaldson Stewart
Divorce lawyer at Donaldson Stewart, P.C.
There is no requirement that one party advance funds to the other for payment of attorney fees. The court has the discretion to award attorney fees (based on the financial resources of the parties and the reasonableness of positions they take throughout the proceedings). You can ask the court to enter a temporary order for him to provide some funds for you to hire counsel, but you will probably have to obtain funds elsewhere to hire the lawyer in the first place to assist with the temporary orders. I recommend you consult with an attorney to discuss this matter in greater detail.

What will now happen on the home equity loan?

Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Terry A. Buchanan
In California, a debt incurred after date of marriage is a community property obligation. That principal would be strong in your case as the funds from the loan went to purchase a vehicle for husband #2 after your marriage to husband #2.? An important fact would be the terms of your divorce judgment with husband #1 - husband #1 appears to be 50% liable for the first deed of trust (mortgage) and husband #2 would be?50% liable for the equity line. Husband #2's liability may well be 100% if he is awarded the truck that the equity funds were used to purchase.
