How can I close a divorce opened by the other party

John Michael Frick
Answered by attorney John Michael Frick (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Reid Dennis Frick, PC
If the divorce case is still pending (usually cases are dismissed for want of prosecution after 3-6 months if the Respondent has not been served), and you and your husband can reach an agreement on the division of your marital estate, you can probably get an attorney in or near the county where the case is pending to prepare a final decree and the ancillary documents and to prove up the divorce for $5,000 or less.  A simple divorce with no kids and limited assets shouldn't cost more than this in Texas unless you and your husband disagree on the division of your marital estate.

What does court require to prove child is not the husband's child?

Answered by attorney Mark T. Peters (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Peters Law, PLLC
The court will require a DNA test of the child and the putative father. You will have to ask for a court order for the testing to be done. The wife will not be able to refuse that. If you want to make sure that you don't pay child support, ask the court to hold off on a final decree until the baby is born and the DNA tests are performed. I suppose it is possible that the court could grant the divorce and keep jurisdiction over the case until the child is born.

Can my ex have our judgment modified to prevent me from having guest?

It is very doubtful in most jurisdictions, and will not happen in Michigan if you are properly represented.
