If I get a legal separation, do I have to leave my home?

A legal separation has to resolve property issues just like a divorce. Depending upon who owns the house, what disclaimer deeds etc have been signed, will determine who can stay. I would consult an attorney if you want more information.

What to do!!

Answered by attorney Lisa M. VanAuken
Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Lisa M. VanAuken
Likely you will need to amend your petition for divorce to add a request that the Court confirm paternity of the child since the child is not technically a child of the marriage.  You can provide a certified copy of the acknowledgement of paternity as an exhibit to your petition.  Unless someone challenges the AOP the Court should confirm paternity.   It seems unusual that the Court would deny a TRO due to this situation, but some Courts are very particular about the pleadings and require you to be very precise in your pleadings.

What should I do if my ex won't sign the divorce papers?

There is no requirement in Colorado, nor in most states, that you spouse sign anything. All that is required is that he be personally served the paper work and that there is someone who can state under oath that the papers were served on him.
