Court order for non payment of alimony?

Jason Alan Ostendorf
Answered by attorney Jason Alan Ostendorf (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Office of Jason Ostendorf LLC
I'm sorry to hear about the challenges you're facing with alimony payments. Navigating interstate enforcement can be complex, but there are steps you can take to address this situation: Register the Georgia Alimony Order in Colorado:Under the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act (UIFSA), you can register your Georgia alimony order in Colorado. This allows Colorado courts to enforce the order as if it were their own. To do this, you'll need to file the necessary documents with the Colorado court system. Once registered, Colorado courts can assist in enforcing the order. Initiate Wage Garnishment:Since your ex-spouse is in the military, the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) handles military pay. You can request DFAS to garnish his wages for alimony payments. This requires submitting a valid court order that specifies the alimony amount and directs the employer to withhold the specified amount. Seek Legal Assistance:Given your financial constraints, consider reaching out to legal aid organizations in Colorado that offer free or low-cost services. They can assist with the registration process and provide guidance on enforcing the alimony order. If you’re dealing with enforcement complexities, consulting a divorce attorney can provide insights into how similar interstate enforcement processes might work, as many family law principles are consistent across states. Document All Communications:Keep detailed records of all communications with your ex-spouse regarding alimony payments. This documentation can be crucial if legal action becomes necessary. Stay Informed:Familiarize yourself with both Georgia and Colorado laws related to alimony enforcement. Understanding your rights and the legal processes can empower you to take effective action. Taking these steps can help ensure you receive the alimony payments you depend on. Although I'm a Maryland divorce attorney, this advice should be helpful in light of the UIFSA and its application across states.

Is our marriage void if my wife was married at the time?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney John E. Kirchner (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at John E. Kirchner
Yes, if one party is still married to someone else the marriage is prohibited and therefore void. Strictly speaking it is only "voidable" because you probably need to get a judicial declaration of invalidity to protect yourself. If the purpose of you question is based on wanting to keep the current relationship intact as a marriage, you should simply go and get married again.

What can I do if my husband and I own a home together and he wants me to move out?

You can file for divorce now and get a court order for him to pay for your new place. That way you can make sure he keeps his word. Or you can ask the court to move him out.
