I recently got served with divorce papers and i have a regarding the paperwork. What is DRL 253 with subdivisions 2, 3, 4. And what happens if i waive

Kristen Prata Browde

Divorce lawyer at Browde Law, P.C.
§ 253. Removal of barriers to remarriage. 1. This section applies only to a marriage solemnized in this state or in any other jurisdiction by a person specified in subdivision one of section eleven of this chapter. 2. Any party to a marriage defined in subdivision one of this section who commences a proceeding to annul the marriage or for a divorce must allege, in his or her verified complaint: (i) that, to the best of his or her knowledge, that he or she has taken or that he or she will take, prior to the entry of final judgment, all steps solely within his or her power to remove any barrier to the defendant's remarriage following the annulment or divorce; or (ii) that the defendant has waived in writing the requirements of this subdivision. 3. No final judgment of annulment or divorce shall thereafter be entered unless the plaintiff shall have filed and served a sworn statement: (i) that, to the best of his or her knowledge, he or she has, prior to the entry of such final judgment, taken all steps solely within his or her power to remove all barriers to the defendant's remarriage following the annulment or divorce; or (ii) that the defendant has waived in writing the requirements of this subdivision. 4. In any action for divorce based on subdivisions five and six of section one hundred seventy of this chapter in which the defendant enters a general appearance and does not contest the requested relief, no final judgment of annulment or divorce shall be entered unless both parties shall have filed and served sworn statements: (i) that he or she has, to the best of his or her knowledge, taken all steps solely within his or her power to remove all barriers to the other party's remarriage following the annulment or divorce; or (ii) that the other party has waived in writing the requirements of this subdivision.

Are there reasons why a wife wouldn't get a 50/50 share of assets ?

Morghan Leia Richardson
Answered by attorney Morghan Leia Richardson (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Richardson Legal PLLC
This question doesn't really provide enough information. If you, as the Wife, did not pay the mortgage (because you maybe were taking care of the kids and running things at home, but not working), your contribution is still valuable, but it may not rise to 50% ownership of the marital home. Certainly you would be entitled to your marital share of pensions. Really, more facts are needed to assess the assets you are talking about. Consider talking to some lawyers near you to get a better feel of how they would approach your case.
