Do I have to leave my home if its my wife who stabbed me in my back?

Perhaps not, but I would not go back. You should call for an appointment and commence an action for divorce.

Hello Can you have a marriage annulled because the wife can not have children and the spouse wants children? Thanks so much!

Answered by attorney Cindy S. Vova
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Cindy S. Vova, P.A.
   Unfortunately, you would not be successful in pursuing an annulment. There are very limited circumstances where one can have a marriage annulled.  The unfortunate situation where you cannot now have children is not as a result of any fraud (which can be a ground for annnulment), but even then, once a marriage is consumated it cannot be set aside.    You would have to pursue getting a divorce based on the facts provided.     Sorry.   Best of luck, Cindy S.

What can I do if my ex still has not removed my name on our property which in the divorce decree he had until 2012 to refinance?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James Timothy Weiner (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at James T. Weiner, P.C.
File a motion in the court that issued the divorce judgment for his contempt of that judgment. In the motion ask that the Judge give him the option to refinance it within 3 months to take your name off the mortgage or if he cannot force him to sell it. Most likely his excuse will be that he cannot refinance because he cannot get a loan (many mortgages are underwater) but that is not your concern he has encumbered your credit. Now the real issue becomes if the house is "underwater" i.e. the balance due on the mortgage is higher than the house is worth. In that case he may have to come to the table with money to refinance it and if he does not have the money how can he refinance it? Then you force him into a sale anyway but your credit may be hit because you are still liable on the mortgage.
